Welcome It's a highway to hell The holy roadside Step right this way)
And they all lay down, lay down Holy roadside
(Holy roadside Like a scarlet glistening necklace On a whore you can have, but never own I try with jaw-grip determination to temper the beast Black and winding, whip-thrust Running ever-on, unthinking, unsleeping Purposeful that way The naive never grieve But believe in their purchase and lay Holy roadside)
And they all lay down, lay down Holy roadside
Way up on high The angels Hawaiian They spread their wings and they smile for a while (Raise your voices) Hey children, can't you see Everbody's got the right to be free
Yeah, we all lay down, lay down Holy roadside
(All our heros gone before us May their work forever live on)
I wish, I wish, I wish I could come back in the next life As a black labrador soakin' up the sun
One and all lay down, lay down Holy roadside
(It's a highway to hell Holy roadside Where the atheist drops to his knees and prays)
Oh lord, oh lord won't you spare me Won't you send me one last sign Let me go, don't you know I can mend my ways It's way before my time
And we all lay down, lay down Holy roadside Lay down, lay down Holy roadside Lay down, lay down Holy roadside
