Middle Of The Road

Middle of the road Is trying to find me I'm standing in the middle of life with my plans behind me But I got a smile For everyone I meet Long as you don't try dragging my bay Or dropping the bomb on my street Oh, come on, baby Get in the road Come on now In the middle of the road, yeah In the middle of the road You see the darnedest things Like fat cats driving 'round in jeeps through the city Wearing big diamond rings and silk suits Past corrugated tin shacks full up with kids And man, I don't mean a Hampstead nursery But when you own a big chunk of the bloody Third World The babies just come with the scenery Now come on, baby Get in the road Come on now In the middle of the road, yeah One Two Three Four Five Six The middle of the road Is no private cul-de-sac I can't get from the cab to the curb Without some little jerk on my back Don't harass me, can't you tell I'm going home, I'm tired as hell I'm not the cat I used to be I've got a kid, I'm thirty-three, baby Get in the road Come on now In the middle of the road
