[Verse 1]
Moonshine
In the shape of a lifeline
Hasn’t it been a long time
Since you came up for air?
Are we dancing on a fine line?
Ain’t it just like a smile line
To leave you standing by a roadside sign
With your thumb in the air?

[Pre-Chorus]
Oh, let the warm wind blow

And may you never know
When the good times go
Rolling away

[Chorus]
Baby, we need a holiday
On our westbound way to our day in the sun
Just leave ’em cursing the morning
They don’t pay you to live this way
No race down here has ever been won

[Verse 2]
It won’t help you to hold on tight
Read the books, you can never get it right
You’re just a moment of starlight
Spinning out on a stone
We’re getting off of the merry-go-round
Don’t let the ba*tards get you down
We all comes from lost and found
To the great unknown

[Pre-Chorus]
Oh, let the warm wind blow
And may you never know
When the good times go

Rolling away

[Chorus]
Baby, we need a holiday
On our westbound way to our day in the sun
Just leave ’em cursing the morning
They don’t pay you to live this way
No race down here has ever been won
Oh, baby, don’t we need a holiday?
On our westbound way to our day in the sun
Just leave ’em cursing the morning
They don’t pay you to live this way
No race down here has ever been won

[Post-Chorus]
Living your life on the run
Living your life on the run

[Outro]
Oh, baby
Ooh
Oh, they need a holiday
Ooh
