One Way Home

The Hooters One Way Home Lyrics
1.Satellite

Lyricist:Eric Bazilian, Rick Chertoff, Rob Hyman

Hush little baby, don't cry like that
God's gonna buy you a Cadillac
He's chosen you do do his will
You can spread the word in your coupe de ville

So jump in the river and learn to swim
God's gonna wash away all your sins
And if you still can't see the light
God's gonna buy you a satellite

Look to the heavens and see it shine
Heals the sick and leads the blind
Tune it in and hear it say
It's counting down to judgment day

So jump in the river and learn to swim
God's gonna wash away all your sins
And if you still can't see the light
God's gonna buy you a satellite

Hey, satellite man, your time has come
Your word received by everyone
And should you fall, well, that's okay
You love the ones that you betray

So jump in the river and learn to swim
God's gonna wash away all your sins
And when at last you see the light
God's gonna by you a satellite

So jump in the river and learn to swim
God's gonna wash away all your sins
And when at last you see the light
God's gonna buy you a satellite

Yeah, when at last you see the light
God's gonna buy you a satellite
Hey, God's gonna buy you a satellite

Look to the heavens and see it shine


2.One Way Home

I met a man in Memphis, glory to the South
Minister of magic, keeper of the house
Standing at the crossroads, he gathered up my bones
Threw them on his back and said
Hey son, it's time to find the one way home

Such a long way, such a long, long way
Such a long, long way to go

I found a friend in Phoenix, said, she knew the way
Talkin' 'bout tomorrow, countin' down the days
I woke up in her garden, lost but not alone
She gathered up my things and said
Hey son, it's time to find the one way home

Such a long way, such a long, long way
Such a long, long way to go

I came upon a castle, changing of the guard
Looked beyond the barbed wire, saw my own backyard
I heard a million voices from statues made of stone
Say, Welcome to the big one, son
You're just in time to find the one way home

Such a long way, such a long, long way
Such a long, long way to go

Which direction will you take on the journey you must make?


3.Hard Rockin Summer

It was a night to remember, a fire down below
Couldn't hide from the heat there was nowhere to go
And the cat on the roof, she's running for cover
Deep in the jungle of a hard rockin' summer

I was a young Romeo tryin' to find Juliet
I was hot on the trail of my own silhouette
And the cat on the roof, she's crazy from hunger
She waits in the shadows of a hard rockin' summer

And then the sky started falling and night hit the ground
Thought I heard someone calling, the ghost of a sound
Now that the cat on the roof has captured the hunter
Deep in the jungle of a hard rockin' summer

It was a night to remember, you know what I mean
Now it's late in September and she's just a dream
And the cat on the roof, she's back under cover
And I'm just a prisoner of a hard rockin' summer


4.Engine 999

She was the fire and I was the engine
One of a thousand built to last
She was the fire dancing with hunger
She knew I would follow till I ran out of gas

Lost in the summer of burning desire
She lit the night for miles away
Out of control, yeah, she was the fire
And off in the distance she called my name

Engine 999, I'll met you on the roads we used to ride
Engine 999, a thousand dreams we left behind

She was the fire and I was her prisoner
One of a thousand tied to her flame
She was the fire dancing with hunger
And the way she danced was never the same

I was a fool to try and contain her
One of a thousand consumed in her path
Running like wild yeah she was the fire
I was the engine she was calling back

Engine 999, I'll met you on the roads we used to ride
Engine 999, a thousand dreams we left behind

She was the fire and I was the engine
She was the one I couldn't tame
Out of control, yeah, she was the fire
And still I can hear her call my name

Engine 999, I'll met you on the roads we used to ride
Engine 999, a thousand dreams we left behind
