Winning Streak
(words & music by Markus Rill)
 
 
There’s a two-lane blacktop stretchin’ out in front of my eyes
I’m gonna ride, ride and drive you right outta my mind
I’ll follow that lost highway till the end
I’ll forget about her or I’ll pretend

I’ll leave my troubles far behind me
And I know they won’t ever find me
Well, my girl is gone, I got the cops on my trail but I’ll be free
It don’t look too good but I know I’m on a winning streak
Don’t look too good but I know I’m on a winning streak

Held up a liquor store, got some money in the back seat
Everything went smooth till the police showed up on the scene
There was a shoot-out and I got away
Somebody got hurt, now they’re on my trail

But I’ll leave my troubles far behind me
And I know they won’t ever find me
Well, my girl is gone, I got the cops on my trail but I’ll be free
It don’t look too good but I know I’m on a winning streak
Don’t look too good but I know I’m on a winning streak

I’ve been losin’ blood all day
Caught a bullet in the back when I made my getaway
But I ain’t afraid of dying
Let me tell you why, tell you why

Cuz I’ll leave my troubles far behind me
And I know they won’t ever find me
Well, my girl is gone, I got the cops on my trail but I’ll be free
It don’t look too good but I know I’m on a winning streak
Don’t look too good but I know I’m on a winning streak
