She came to me in a cloud of dust
Threw off her leathers with passion and lust
Not a word, not a sound, just a knowing look
She invited me to play in the coming dusk.
The night is a cool place, a peaceful retreat
A chance to unwind, to relax from the heat
To drink some good whiskey with someone you know
And share an embrace on some warm cotton sheets
In the morning we’ll suit up, drive for a while
Stop at a diner and eat lunch in style
Full up and fuelled up we’ll take to the road
Rolling like hunters mile after mile
Ch. But what do we search for, what do we seek?
Just two lonesome travellers on a steel beast
I wish I could answer, I wish that I knew
We’re just two lonesome travellers on a steel beast
In the evening we’ll check in at a motel
Strip off the day in a steamy hot spray
Drink some more whiskey, the best we can find
Sleep sound and dream of the coming day
Yeah, She came to me in a cloud of dust
Threw off her leathers with passion and lust
We drank some good whiskey, drank all we could
And rolled on like hunters in the coming dusk.
Ch. But what do we search for, what do we seek?
Just two lonesome travellers on a steel beast
I wish I could answer, I wish that I knew
We’re just two lonesome travellers on a steel beast.
