Life in the Fast Lane (Live|1999 Remaster) - Eagles

Written by：Joseph Wals

He was a hard-headed man

He was brutally handsome and she was terminally pretty

She held him up and he held her for ransom in the heart

Of the cold cold city

He had a nasty reputation as a cruel dude

They said he was ruthless they said he was crude

They had one thing in common they were good in bed

She'd say faster faster the lights are turnin' red

Life in the fast lane surely makes you lose your mind

Life in the fast lane huh

Eager for action and hot for the game

The coming attraction the drop of a name

They knew all the right people they took all the right pills

They threw outrageous parties they paid heavenly bills

There were lines on the mirror lines on her face

She pretended not to notice she was caught up in the race

Out every evening until it was light

He was too tired to make it she was too tired to fight about it

Life in the fast lane surely makes you lose your mind

Life in the fast lane huh

Life in the fast lane everything all the time

Life in the fast lane huh

Blowin' and burnin' blinded by thirst

They didn't see the stop sign took a turn for the worst

She said listen baby you can hear the engine ring

We've been up and down this highway haven't seen a goddam thing

He said call the doctor I think I'm gonna crash

The doctor says he's comin' but you gotta pay in cash

They went rushin' down that freeway messed around and got lost

They didn't know they were to dyin' to get off

And it was life in the fast lane surely makes you lose your mind

Life in the fast lane huh

Life in the fast lane everything all the time

Life in the fast lane huh

Life in the fast lane

Life in the fast lane
