Dire Straits

The Long Highway

Heard a bell being toll
Before the break of day
I heard then my name being called
Down that long highway
You dont get long
You dont get long
You dont get long to stay
Kissing me once and Ill be gone
Down that long highway
Spirits call from way beyond
Lord I may not disobey
Spare a thought for the vagabond
Down that long highway
Down that long highway
Down that long highway

Industrail Disease

Now warning lights are flashing down in Quality Control,
Somebody threw a spanner, they threw him in the hole.
There's rumors in the loading bay and anger in the town,
Somebody blew the whistle and the walls came down.
There's a meeting in the boardroom, they're trying to trace a smell,
There's leaking in the washroom, there's a sneak in personnel.
Somewhere in the corridor someone was heard to sneeze,

How Long

How long, how long baby
How long has it been
How long you gonna keep me wondering
How long before you see
Stallin me was wrong
How long
How long, how long you gonna keep
Slappin my hand away
How long you gonna keep my love at bay
How long before youre sure
My love is strong
How long
How long, how long you gonna keep
Tellin me you like me fine
How long until Im gonna make you mine
How long before wake up
And find your good man gone
How long

Southbound Again

Southbound again I dont know if Im going or leaving home
Boy got to be moving
Seems like the boy is bound to roam
Southbound again got no money Ive got no place to go
That womans with her lover boy
Never want to see her face no more
Every single time I roll across the rolling river tyne
I get the same old feeling
Every time Im moving down the line
Southbound again last night I felt like crying
Right now Im sick of living
But Im going to keep on trying

You & Your Friend

Will you and your friend come around
Are you and your friend gonna get on down
Will you and your friend come around
Or are you and your friend gonna let me down
If you talk to one another
Im a hungry man
Let me know one way or the other
So I can make my plans
Will you and your friend come around
Or are you and your friend gonna get on down
Will you and your friend come around
Or are you and your friend gonna get on down
I relive the situation
Still see it in my mind
You got my imagination
Working overtime

Fade To Black

I wonder where you are tonight
Youre probably on the rampage somewhere
You have been known to take delight
In gettin in somebodys hair
And you always had the knack
Fade to black
I bet you already made a pass
I see a darkened room somewhere
You run your finger round the rim of his glass
You run your fingers through air hair
They scratch across his back
Fade to black
Well maybe its all for the best
But I wish Id never been lassooed
Maybe its some kind of test
But I wish Id never been tattooed
Or been to hell and back
Fade to black

Private Investigations

Its a mystery to me
The game commences
For the usual fee
Plus expenses
Confidential information
Its in a diary
This is my investigation
Its not a public inquiry
I go checking out the report
Digging up the dirt
You get to meet all sorts
In the line of work
Treachery and treason
Theres always an excuse for it
And when I find the reason
I still cant get used to it
And what have you got at the end of the day ?
What have you got to take away ?
A bottle of whisky and a new set of lies
Blinds on the window and a pain behind the eyes

Setting Me Up

You say Im the greatest bound for glory
Well the word is out and I learned
I got the latest side of the story
Youre pulling out before you get burned
Well your hands are squeezing me down to the bone
I never saw you breaking no law
Stands to reason Ive got to leave you alone
What you take me for
Youre setting me up to put me down
Youre making me out to be your clown
Youre just setting me up to put me down
You better give it up
Quit your messing around
You think I care about your reaction
You think I dont understand
All you wanted was a piece of the action
Now you talk about another man

I Think I Love You Too Much

Im not alone sitting right there
How come I get the feeling youd vanish into the air
I love you more than anybody else, babe
Cant you tell Im an easy touch.
Baby, baby, I think I love you too much
If I picked you up, oh youd slip right away
If I locked you up, youd find a way to make me pay.
Youre gonna hurt me more than anybody else babe
Cant you tell Im an easy touch
Baby, baby, I think I love you too much.
Bridge:
Guess Im gonna get you what you want
Cuz Im so into you
You dont even give an inch to me baby
Though Ive been giving you a mile or two
Bridge
Verse 1
Baby, baby, I think I love you too much (repeat)
