Tightrope
Pounding the beat
Walking the streets
Dirt on my shoes
I've got the jaywalk blues

Dragging my feet
Feeling the heat
Nowhere to go
There's no-one here I know

Tightrope (Tightrope, rope)
High rope (High rope, ah)
Walking on a tightrope, tightrope (tightrope)

High rope (High rope, rope)
Tightrope (Tightrope, ah)
Going where there's no hope

Standing alone
Too far from home
His number one tells me to move along

Drinking some wine
Passing the time
People go by but they don't see me smile
Tightrope (Tightrope, rope)
High rope (High rope, ah)
Walking on a tightrope, tightrope (tightrope)

[Instrumental Break]

Tightrope (Tightrope, rope)
High rope (High rope, ah)
Walking on a tightrope, tightrope (tightrope)

High rope (High rope, rope)
Tightrope (Tightrope, ah)
Going where there's no hope

Tightrope (Tightrope, rope)
High rope (High rope, ah)
Walking on a tightrope, tightrope (tightrope)

High rope (High rope, rope)
Tightrope (Tightrope, ah)
Going where there's no hope

Tightrope (Tightrope, rope)
High rope (High rope, ah)
Walking on a tightrope, tightrope (tightrope)
High rope (High rope, rope)
Tightrope (Tightrope...)
