Lyrics One Way Street

Got a wallet and a photograph
Of a wife and a kid
There's a letter inside, says she don't want me back
Don't you ever come back

Got a drug in that bag of mine
It says come on over take me anytime
I am the light of your life
Got to have you tonight

By the time I turned twenty-one
I should have done it all
Pulled out that gun
When I need you tonight

And you just can't hold me down
'Cos I'm headed the wrong way home
One Way Street

I tried living with the people next door
They got sick of a guy sleeping on their floor
They said it's got no style
Can I stay with you for a while

Now I'm back in the singles bar
I got a bottle of beer and my eye on the rear
Of my best friends' girl
Oh I should be ashamed of myself (but I'm not, no)

Now I wanna go and have some fun
But I can't meet you baby
Woh and I need you tonight

And you just can't hold me down
'Cos I'm headed the wrong way home
One Way Street

And you just can't hold me down
'Cos I'm headed the wrong way home
One Way Street

Got a wallet and a photograph
Of a wife and a kid
There's a letter inside, says she don't want me back
Man don't you ever come back

By the time I turned twenty-one
I should have done it all
Pulled out that gun
When I need you tonight

And you just can't hold me down
'Cos I'm headed the wrong way home
One Way Street

And you just can't hold me down
'Cos I'm headed the wrong way home
One Way Street

One Way Street
