Yeah, why don't you drive meDown that rough and twisted road?Why don't you guide me?'Cause I don't know which way to goPromise to take meYeah, to where the water glowsSomewhere, somewhere down to Puerto RicoWhere the tide just ebbs and flowsFlash me all your jewelryPoetry and friendsPromise me a dance like NijinskyNothing, nothing, nothing but a false pretenseYeah, all you feed meWas just rancid ricе and bonesAll I drank was muddy waterAs lonely as a saxophonеWhy don't you take meTo where I wanna go?To Natchez, MississippiSicily and RomeYou just took me to a flyblown townIn the back of nowhereSmell was acrid and toxicCouldn't breathe the airThe only club was called ConspiracyThey didn't like me muchWhat they wanted was tyrannyAnd all that crazy, crazy, fucked up stuffWhy don't you drive me?Take me where you wanna goYeah, why don't you take meDown this rough and twisted road?Yes, why don't you teach meTeach me all those foreign tongues?Yeah, why don't you take me?'Cause I'm deaf and blind and dumbYeah, drive meYeah, drive meWhere I wanna goDrive meTake me where I wannaTake me where I wannaTake me where I wanna go
