Long Shot Songtext
von Poco

Smell of freedom, taste of dust
The city of gold or bust
Said my goodbyes
Ain′t going back now
Such a strange and scenic route
To trying on that big town suit
There comes a time
For stepping out

Oh, I'm taking that long shot
Maybe scratch this itch I′ve got
You never know
Oh, kick the pedal down all the way
Ain't waiting on someday
Here I go


Took a ride through the heart of the beast
Dark detours, sparkling streets
I saw the light
Then I saw it scatter
Fortune's smile is a fickle thing
King to pauper, pauper to king
But I′m still here
And that′s all that matters

Oh, I'm taking that long shot
Maybe scratch this itch I′ve got
You never know
Oh, kick the pedal down all the way
Ain't waiting on someday
Here I go

Ooh, hear the sound of that telephone
Ooh, who′ll be calling me tomorrow?
Ooh, living my life on the dream

I heard about dreams scraping the sky
And sweet angels singing all night
For a song
That's where I belong

Oh, I′m taking that long shot
Maybe scratch this itch I've got
You never know
Oh, kick the pedal down all the way
Ain't waiting on someday
Here I go


Here I go
Yeah, yeah
Oh, here I go
Baby, here I go
