Dire Straits - Skateaway lyrics

I seen a girl on a one way corridor

Stealing down a wrong way street

For all the world like an urban toreador

She had wheels on on her feet

Well the cars do the usual dances

Same old cruise and the kerbside carwl

But the rollergirl she`s taking chances

They just love to see her take them all

No fears alone at night she`s sailing through the crowd

In her ears the phones are tight and the music`s playing loud

Hellelujah here she comes queen rollerball

Enchante what can I say don`t care at all

You know she used to have wait around

She used to be the lonely one

But now that she can skate around town

She`s the only one

No fears alone at night she`s sailing through the crowd

In her ears the phones are tight and the music`s playing loud

She gets rock n roll a rock n roll station

And a rock n roll dream

She`s making movies on location

She don`t know what it means

But the music make her wanna be the story

And the story was whatever was the song what it was

Rollergirl don`t worry

D.j. play the movies all night long

She toutures taxi drivers just for fun

She like to read their lips

Says toro toro taxi see ya tomorrow my son

I swear she let a big truck graze her hip

She got her own world in the city

You can`t intrude on her

She got her own world in the city

Cos the city`s been so rude to her

Come slippin and a slidin

Life`s a rollerball

Slippin and a slidin

Skateaway that`s all

Shala shalay hey hey skateaway

She`s singing shala shalay hey hey

Skateaway
