Fallin’ Off The Edge Of America

by Reo Speedwagon

Jacki said, "I'm dyingTake the words out of my mouthI'm a long way from home, guyAnd I wish I could hold out
Til the sun rises in the morningI don't want to go at nightShe'll be sleeping around nowShe won't see my passing light
I don't want to say it's overWhat's the point but then, oh oh oh oh ohHere I go falling off the edge of America again."
Jackie said, "I'm freakingHold on, man, don't let goSorry for what I done to youJust don't leave me here all on my own
Take that letter out of my back pocketBut don't read it, man, whatever you doIt's just a note and a lock of her hairSend it back to her, it's okay man, it's cool
I don't want to talk about itWords just cause too much pain, oh oh oh oh ohHere I go falling off the edge of America again, oh oh oh oh ohHere I go falling off the edge of America again."
Got my back to the PacificI'm a million miles from homeOn a tightrope called AmericaWith no place left to go, oh oh oh oh
Jackie says, "It's overI can see the dawn coming upDown on the TenderloinThe Ice Man, he's shooting up
And all the drunks are stumbling homeBut, at least, they got stars in their eyesNow you've put me so far behind youDo you really call this a life?
Nothing to do but to go onTurn your collar up to the rain, oh oh oh oh ohHere I go falling off the edge of America again, oh oh oh oh ohHere I go falling off the edge of America again, oh oh oh oh ohHere I go falling off the edge of America again.
Oh oh oh oh ohHere I go falling off the edge of America again, oh oh oh oh oh..
