All alone in a big bad world

Don't make no sense any more

Telephones and working girls

And jokers lying on the floor

Give me half an hour

Give me one time a day

Just can't seem to catch my breath

Give me blues power give me yippee-yi-yay

Just get me out of this mess

I'm burning bridges

Little girl we've got to move

Burning bridges

I got nothin' left to lose

Just open your eyes

Open the door

I don't want to run any more

Every day and every way

One more fool goes down

But I don't care

I don't want to play

I don't want to be around

I'm burning bridges

Meet me down at the same old place

Burning bridges

I see questions in your face

But open your eyes,

Open the door

I don't want to run any more

I don't want to be the one

To lie broken on the street

I gotta do it if I want it done

Got to get up on my feet - hey!

I'm burning bridges

Meet me down at the same old place

Burning bridges

I see questions in your face

But open your eyes,

Open the door

I don't want to run any more
