Lyrics for The Road To Hell by Chris Rea:
| | | Artist: | Chris Rea |
| | Album: | Unknown | | Track: | The Road To Hell | | | | Date Added: | 18/10/2007 | | Views: | 72 | | | | Lyrics: | Stood still on a highway I saw a woman by the side of the road
With a face that I knew like my
own, reflected in my window
Well, she walked up to my quarter light and she bent down real
slow
A fearful pressure paralysed me in my shadows
She said: Son, what are you doing
here?
My fear for you has turned me in my grave
I said: Mama, I come to the valley of the
rich, myself to sell
She said: Son, this is the road to hell
On your journey 'cross the
wilderness from the desert to the well
You have strayed upon the motorway to hell
Well,
I'm standing by a river but the water doesn't flow
It boils with every poison you can think
of
Then I'm underneath the streetlights, but the light of joy I know
Scared beyond belief
way down in the shadows
And the perverted fear of violence chokes a smile on every
face
And common sense is ringing out the bells
This ain't no technological breakdown, oh no,
this is the road to hell
And all the roads jam up with credit and there's nothing you can
do
It's all just bits of paper flying away from you
Look out world, take a good look what
comes dawn here
You must learn this lesson fast and learn it well
This ain't no upwardly
mobile freeway
Oh no, this is the road, this is the road, this is the road to hell | | | |  Reddit | X / Twitter | Facebook | Copy link |
