House Of Blue Light

Lyrics

Well I'm driving on down to the subside bar
 These days my old shovelhead should go travel far
 Up she goes went out walking, now I wanna be
 Well all the locals gonna give each other company
 We'll drive and shove the pickups in the morning
 Then we'll ride the Harley Davidsons at night
 They all work for somebody who makes all the money
 Amazed, I'm just a-loving you tight in the house of blue light, house of blue light
 Well I'm driving on down to meet a woman there
 She got the long legs ramblin' there's the rollin' hair
 She knows just what to do to make a man feel good
 She's the hardest workin' woman in this neighborhood
 She don't mind makin' breakfast in the morning
 She don't mind makin' love every night
 She said come see me honey and bring lots of money
 'Cause we know how to treat you right in the house of blue light
 House of blue light... House of blue light... House of blue light...
 You know this life is filled with grief, sometimes it gets U so down
 You got to find yourself some relief
 And get the roadhouse, we're right outta sight now, roadhouse of blue light
 Well I've been around the world and bitter times are low
 And I've never really knew what I was searching for
 'Til I came to this place on a midnight ride, I hope next to a Ford that's electrified
 See how the man playing blues from Mississippi
 They had a bar that kept the custom boys inside
 They had so far no protection in a few of your prediction
 The one that's been a whole damn night in the house of blue light
 Yeah, the house of blue light
 In the house of blue light, the house of blue light, yea yea yea
 CORRECTIONS:
 Well I'm drivin' on down to the Surfside Bar
 These days my old shovelhead she don't travel far
 But she goes where I want and now I wanna be
 where all the locals go to keep each other company.
 They all drive Chevy pick-ups in the mornin'
 They all ride Harley Davidson's at night
 They all work for somebody who makes all the money
 And pays them just enough to get tight
 In the house of blue light... the house of blue light
 Well I'm drivin' on down to meet a woman there
 She's got the long legs, the red lips, the golden hair.
 She knows just what to do to make a man feel good
 She's the hardest working woman in this neighborhood.
 She don't mind makin' breakfast in the mornin'
 She don't mind makin' love every night
 She said, "Come see me honey and bring lotsa money
 'Cause we know how to treat you right"
 In the house of blue light... house of blue light... house of blue light
 You know this life is filled with grief
 Sometimes it gets you so down
 You got to find yourself some relief
 And there's a roadhouse right outside of town
 Roadhouse... blue light
 Well I've been around the world a dozen times or more
 And I really never knew what I was searchin' for
 "Til I came to this place on a midnight ride
 I pulled next to a full dressed electraglide
 They had a man playin' blues from Mississippi
 They had a bar that kept their customers inside
 They had some fine architecture with a view that'll get you
 To wanna spend the whole damn night
 In the house of blue light... Yeah, the house of blue light...
 the house of blue light... the house of blue light hey, hey, hey
