Lyrics Black Star Riders – Bound For Glory
Text:
Johnny Wong keeps tryin’ to get it right,
Way down in Suckerville tonight
When darkness falls in the neon lights,
He feels like walking dynamite
And he knows he could never win,
He’s just trying to loose a little more slowly
Bound for glory (Bound for glory)
The lost but never lonely,
Bound for glory (Bound for glory)
Bound for livin’ on the edge,
Bound for glory (Bound for glory)
The righteous and unholy,
Desperation always tells a story
I would’ve rebuilt Jericho,
For nights as good as this
Another shot of redemption,
And it’s taste in every kiss
Elvis in the backroom,
Jesus on the wall,
Mary’s on the whiskey,
There’s shadows in the hall
Bound for glory (Bound for glory)
The lost but never lonely,
Bound for glory (Bound for glory)
Bound for livin’ on the edge,
Bound for glory (Bound for glory)
The righteous and unholy,
Desperation always tells a story
We all know we can never win,
We’re all trying to lose a little more slowly
Ride that downtown train hellbound for glory
Bound for glory (Bound for glory)
The lost but never lonely,
Bound for glory (Bound for glory)
Bound for livin’ on the edge,
Bound for glory (Bound for glory)
The righteous and unholy,
Desperation always tells a story
