Glasgow Girl

Lyrics

I'm stuck out on the ring road, tonight the stars are crossed
 If I don't find my way around soon, I'm sure to end up lost
 Sheffield has that certain mix of danger and despair
 I need to roll these windows down and breathe the cold night air
 I said goodbye to Camden Town as night was falling fast
 In a borrowed, beat-up step van with a tank of petrol gas
 And I'm riding on the wrong side like some blue Yank fly boy clown
 I'm trying to read these road signs while I'm staring headlights down
 Glasgow girl, skin like milk, hair black silk
 And eyes like cobalt pearl
 The Glasgow girl assured me she liked my Texas drawl
 And if I ever passed that way again, I should be sure to call
 I've tracked her down to Aberdeen, and I'm trying to get up north
 Across the Scottish lowlands far beyond the Firth of Forth
 Glasgow girl, skin like milk, hair black silk
 And eyes like cobalt pearl
 ♪
 The Romans built these roads to last another thousand years
 And I'm riding around in circles like it starts and ends right here
 The raindrops on my windshield now have turned to ice and snow
 I'm stuck out on the ring road with a million miles to go
 Glasgow girl, skin like milk, hair black silk
 And eyes like cobalt pearl
 Skin like milk, hair black silk
 And eyes like cobalt pearl
