Rodney Crowell - Glasgow Girl Lyrics
I'm stuck out on the Ring Road, tonight the stars are crossedIf I don't find my way around soon, I'm sure to end up lostSheffield has that certain mix of danger and despairI need to roll these windows down and breathe the cold night airI said goodbye to Camden Town as night was falling fastIn a borrowed, beat up step van and a tank of petrol gasAnd I'm riding on the wrong side like some blue Yank flyboy clownI'm trying to read these road signs while I'm staring headlights downGlasgow Girl, skin like milk, hair black silkAnd eye's like cobalt pearlThe Glasgow Girl assured me she liked my Texas drawlAnd if I ever passed that way again I should be sure to callI tracked her down to Aberdeen, and I'm trying to get up northAcross the Scottish lowlands far beyond the Firth of ForthGlasgow Girl, skin like milk, hair black silkAnd eye's like cobalt pearlThe Roman's built these roads to last another thousand yearsAnd I'm riding around in circles like it starts and ends right hereThe raindrops on my windshield now have turned to ice and snowI'm stuck out on the Ring Road with a million miles to goGlasgow Girl, skin like milk, hair black silkAnd eye's like cobalt pearlSkin like milk, hair black silkAnd eye's like cobalt pearl
