It was a bad day in the mirror There I stood the livin' dead When I saw the face so familiar Hoverin' like a voice over my head It took me back to that October I was playing to the crowd I was suddenly stone cold sober When I heard a voice calling out loud
Boy you're headed down the road that leads nowhere There's only one direction you can turn, only love can take
When you're on the downslide Hot side out, or Right side up
Well I ain't here to preach no sermon But for me it was the truth When the wind would crack and the thunder roared Lord I thought that I was bulletproof
I was headed down the road to nowhere There's only one direction you can turn, only love can take
When you're on the downslide Don't tell me that's what you're all about Feel it in your heartbeat Walking down the right street Hot side out, or Right side up
Once you get straight, you're headed in the right direction You can see it clearly for the first time Think you finally got the right side up
I was headed down the road to nowhere There's only one direction you can turn, only love can take
When you're on the downslide Don't tell me that's what you're all about Feel it in your heartbeat Walking down the right street Hot side out, or Right side up (Feel it in your heartbeat) (Walking down the right street)
