All alone in a big bad world
don´t make no sense any more
telephones and working girls
and jokers lying on the floor

Give me half an hour
give me one time a day
just can´t seem to catch my breath
give me blues power give me yippee-yi-yay
just get me out of this mess

I´m burning bridges
little girl we´ve got to move
burning bridges
I got nothin´left to lose
just open your eyes
open the door
I don´t want to run any more

Every day and every way
one more fool goes down
but I don´t care
I don´t want to play
I don´t want to be around

I´m burning bridges
meet me down at the same old place
burning bridges
I see questions in your eyes
open the door
I don´t want to run any more

I don´t want to be the one
to lie broken on the street
I gotta do it if I want it done
got to get up on my feet - hey!
I´m burning bridges...
