The Asphalt World (Original Unedited Version)

Lyrics

[Verse 1] I know a girl, she walks the asphalt world She comes to me, and I supply her with ecstasy Sometimes, we ride in a taxi to the ends of the city Like big stars in the backseat, like skeletons, ever so pretty I know a girl, she walks the asphalt world [Chorus] But where does she go? And what does she do? And how does she feel when she's next to you? And who does she love in her time-honoured fur? Is it me or her?

And what does she do? And how does she feel when she's next to you? And who does she love in her time-honoured fur? Is it me or her? 'Cause that's where I go And that's what I do And that's how it feels when the sex turns cruel Yes, both of us need her, this is the asphalt world [Instrumental Break] [Bridge] [Oh, it's me or her It's me or her It's me or her Oh, it's me or her It's me or her ?] [Chorus] But where does she go? And what does she do? And how does she feel when she's next to you? And who does she love in time-honoured fur? And where does she go when she's out with her? Is that where they go? Is that what they do? And that's how it feels when the sex turns cruel Yes, both of us need her, this is the asphalt world [Outro] If you'd like to take part in a few- But, I've heard some wonderful things about your husband too [?] mind Oh, why should I mind? [?] never lets me have more than one, but I'm scared stiff Well you're drinking yourself stiff [?] And copi- Each of our three races today, after which they drop off at Newton Abbott this evening; there's a whole lot more riding to be done. Today we're racing at the new course at Tottenham, and they're going-
