Dire Straits

News

He sticks to his guns

He take the road as it comes

It take the shine off his shoes

He says it's a shame

You know it may be a game

Ah, but I won't play to lose

He's burning the grass

He take up a glass

He swallow it neat

He crosses the floor

He open the door

He take a sniff of the street

And she tell him that he's crazy

She's a-saying listen baby

I'm your wife

She tell him that he's crazy

For gambling a-with his life

But he climbs on his horse

You know he feel no remorse

He just kicks it alive

His motor is fine

He take it over the line

Until he's ready to dive

And she tell him that he's crazy

Yes she's saying listen baby

I'm your wife

Yeah She tell him that he's crazy

For gambling with his life

He sticks to his guns

He take the road as it comes

It take the shine off his shoes

He says it's a shame

You know it may be a game

Ah but I won't play to lose

He sticks to his guns

He take the road as it comes

It take the shine off his shoes

He's too fast to stop

He take it over the top

He make a line in the news
