[Chorus 1]
One night in a motel room
Eyes cast like steel
I drank the wine that they left on my table
I knew the morning was too far
[Verse 1]
I smoked my last cigarette
I stay only to defy
The night was dark and the land was cold
It's frozen right to the bone
[Chorus 2]
Just like fire would, I burn up
Just like fire would
Just like fire would, I burn up
[Verse 2]
500 miles I've gone today
Tomorrow's 500 more
Outside my window the world pa**es by, it's
Stranger than a dream
[Chorus 2]
[Verse 3]
I go to work and I earn my pay, Lord
My sweat it falls to the ground
I see you now but we may never meet again child
The ice is hanging on the door
[Chorus 1]
[Chorus] [x2]
