New Speedway Boogie (Live at Giants Stadium, East Rutherford, NJ, June 17, 1991)

Lyrics

[Verse 1] Please don't dominate the rap, Jack If you've got nothing new to say If you please, don't back up the track This train has got to run today I spent a little time on the mountain I spent a little time on the hill Heard some say: Better run away Others say: You better stand still I don't know but I've been told In the heat of the sun, a man died of cold Keep on runnin', don't stand and wait With the sun so dark and the hour so late [Refrain] One way or another One way or another One way or another This darkness got to give [Instrumental Break] [Verse 2] Who can deny? Who can deny? It's not just a changе in style One step donе and another begun And I wonder how many miles? I spent a little time on the mountain Spent a little time on the hill I saw things getting out of hand I guess they always will I don't know but I've been told It's a hill to run with a plate of gold Other hand I've heard it said It's just as hard with the weight of lead [Refrain] One way or another One way or another One way or another This darkness got to give [Instrumental Break] [Verse 3] You can't overlook the lack, Jack Of any other highway to ride It's got no signs or dividing lines And very few rules to guide I spent a little time on the mountain Spent a little time on the hill I saw things you don't understand But I think in time I guess we will I don't know but I've been told If the horse don't pull you got to carry the load I don't know whose back's that strong Maybe find out before too long [Outro] One way or another One way or another One way or another This darkness got to give One way or another One way or another One way or another This darkness got to give One way or another One way or another One way or another You know this darkness got to give This darkness got to give This darkness got to give This darkness got to give This darkness got to give This darkness got to give This darkness got to give
