Johnny saw her riding on a street car named desire His fate was sealed She could see him coming like a hundred other liars It was no big deal
Rosa had a lover on the shady side of town Tito he was king of the street She was his possession like a jewel in his crown Johnny better run better run
Better hide your heart better hold on tight Better say your prayers 'cause there's trouble tonight When pride and love battle with desire Better hide your heart 'cause you're playing with fire
The ride was over but the story doesn't end He took her heart She looked him in the eye and said they couldn't meet Again You could see the trouble start
The word went out that Rosa's messing with someone It was on the street Tito looked for Johnny with a vegeance and a gun Johnny better run better run
Better hide your heart better hold on tight Better say your prayers 'cause there's trouble tonight When pride and love battle with desire Better hide your heart 'cause you're playing with fire
Johnny's holding Rosa on a roof-top in the night As time stood still They couldn't hear him coming till he had them both in Sight You could feel a chill
A shot rang out like thunder And the blood was on her hands With nothing won when someone lies there dying Lovers finally understand
Better hide your heart better hold on tight Better say your prayers 'cause there's trouble tonight When pride and love battle with desire Better hide your heart 'cause you're playing with fire
When all alone what do we desire Better hide your heart 'cause you're playing with fire When pride and love battle with desire Better hide your heart 'cause you're playing with fireTeksty umieszczone na naszej stronie są własnością wytwórni, wykonawców, osób mających do nich prawa.
