Story Behind The Song

Anyone show you the front page story Got the news coming over the wire Nobody notice the make or model Another smooth - getaway...

Song Description

Business man with a contract settled Gathers cash and gets out of town Moving quick while the roadway's open Making tracks before they shut it down

Lyrics

Spoken - Anyone show you the front page story
Get the news coming over the wire

Business man with a contract settled
Gathers cash and gets out of town
Moving quick while the roadway's open
Making tracks before they shut it down
Roll, away

CH - Anyone show you the front page story
Got the news coming over the wire
Nobody notice the make or model
Another smooth - getaway... drive

Rolling the dice on a four-leafed clover
Downtown gypsy ready to brawl
Add in a dose of some rough-cut anger
They put another name on graffiti wall
Taught me all I know about the city
Coming back is just like running away
Run, away

CH - Anyone show you the front page story
Got the news coming over the wire
Nobody notice the make or model
Another smooth - getaway... drive


BR - No happy ending like one in a movie
Working so hard just to barely get by
And the whole damn thing come down to money
Be sure to have the time of your life
(SOLO)
Motoring east cross a pitch black dessert
Taking some time lay low for a while
Back on the job once the dust has settled
They don't mention a name in the bold headline
Wrong again
CH - Anyone show you the front page story
Got the news coming over the wire
Nobody notice the make or model
Another smooth - getaway...
CH - Anyone show you the front page story
Got the news coming over the wire
Son of a gun broke his deal with the devil
Saint or - sinner -
Hope you had the time of your life
No happy ending like the one in a movie
Life
Work so hard barely get by
Life
Whole damn thing comes down to money
Just one way
Clear your name
Getaway
