Cruising down the back roads
Running out of time
Mind's eye on the frequency
I'm driving on the line
Nothing coming easy
Had to toil for the truth

Had to dig on down to the underground
Just to find out what it's worth - yeah
I know I can't fake it
My soul I can't deny
Stepping up and take it
Because I can!

Nights are getting colder and
Winter's on the way
Silence on the airwaves
The images are grey
Cruising down the back roads
Running out of fuel
Had to dig on down to the underground
Just to get it back home to you

I can't stand to fake it
Life is on the line
Step right up and take it
Because I can!

I know I can't fake it
Because I can!
