To the Hilt Lyrics

Artist: Golden Earring
Album: To the Hilt

From the Album:
* To the hilt

You wann try â‚¬" wanna fly
Right through the needles eye
Wanna be chilled â‚¬" wanna be thrilled
Press your luck right to the hilt
Hey boy â‚¬" quit that stare
Get out â‚¬" a â‚¬" grandpaâ‚¬â„¢s rockinâ‚¬â„¢ chair
How about raisinâ‚¬â„¢ hell â‚¬" lets see if we
Outdo ourselves.
One day youâ‚¬â„¢ll be tied and gagged
Your head upon the railroad track
The railâ‚¬â„¢s humminâ‚¬â„¢ â‚¬" thereâ‚¬â„¢s a train-a-cominâ‚¬â„¢
Iâ‚¬â„¢m sure your last thoughtâ‚¬â„¢s full of regret
Before the wheels roll across your neck
Why didnâ‚¬â„¢t I do this?
How come I didnâ‚¬â„¢t do that?
I could be out there â‚¬" paintinâ‚¬â„¢ towns red
Sweat
Maybe Iâ‚¬â„¢ll wake up in bed
No boy! This is itâ‚¬ You shouldâ‚¬â„¢ve used
A bit more wit.
Get out there â‚¬Ëœn dig in deep
Stay wide awake when youâ‚¬â„¢re asleep
Who wants to compromise â‚¬" when every
Second hour flies
Set the time on half past tilt
For making love right to the hilt
One day youâ‚¬â„¢ll be buried
Up to your elbows in the sand.
And thereâ‚¬â„¢s honey glowinâ‚¬â„¢
Down your cheeks itâ‚¬â„¢s flowing
Youâ‚¬â„¢ll find some time to reflect
Before the ants are crawling over your head
Why didnâ‚¬â„¢t I do this?!
How come I didnâ‚¬â„¢t do that â‚¬
Is this a dream thatâ‚¬â„¢s gone bad?
Maybe Iâ‚¬â„¢ll just wake up in bed â‚¬
To the hilt â‚¬" is that what you said????
