歌词
制作人 : Don Henley
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 make you lose your mind
Life in the fast lane -Yeah.
"Are you with me so far?"
"Good!"
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 make you lose your mind
Life in the fast lane -Well.
Life in the fast lane,
everything all the time
Life in the fast lane -uh huh.
-Solo-
Blowin' and burnin'
blinded by thirst
They didn't see the stop sign,
took a turn for the worse
She said, "Listen, baby.
You can hear the enginering.
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 say he's comin',
but you gotta pay him cash."
They went rushin' down that freeway,
messed around and got lost
They didn't know they were just dyin' to get off
And it was life in the fast lane
Surely make you lose your mind
Life in the fast lane -Well.
Life in the fast lane,
everything all the time
Life in the fast lane -uh huh.
Life in the fast lane
Life in the fast lane
-Solo-
