Early in the mornin' I'm layin' on my bed Stickin' to the rhythm of the music in my head Rockin' in the mirror rollin' out the door Hop into the car and put the pedal to the floor Callin' out your number I'll take you for a ride Find something to keep me satisfied Runnin' for the money layin' out the green It's a tax accountant's nightmare it's a rock 'n roll dream The income may be different but the outcome's still the same You'll never be a winner boy until you play the game Hounded to distraction racin' to and fro Losin' my direction keepin' up my status quo Now I tried tried tried - tried It just don't seem to keep me satisfied A hundred-thousand miles in a 747 Take it all in style if you wanna get to heaven Chasin' all the action every single night Never understand it but you try to do it right Ragged 'round the edges...none the worse for wear Cuttin' all the corners but they never get me there Now I try try try try It just don't seem to keep me satisfied
