Dance in the Crossfire (2024 Remaster) Lyrics

If it's gonna break, it's gonna break, just stay out of the way

Don't stick your hand in the motor of fate

The tide'll come in when the tide'll come in, wash the beach away

Just try to swim in before it's too late

Someday soon the gangsters and the sheriff in brown

Will be shooting each other down

So just don't stick around to dance in the crossfire

Dance in the crossfire

Your hometown is still your hometown, even if it's been sold out

Who are you to cry 'cause the street's on fire?

And if they're gonna shoot, they're gonna shoot, bullets are bullets, you know

So why do you walk by your window at night?

Someday soon the gangsters and the sheriff in brown

Will be shooting each other down

So just don't stick around to dance in the crossfire

Dance in the crossfire

In a tall blue building with an exit for a door somebody is counting the gold

It used to pave the streets, but that was yesterday

And if it's gonna break, it's gonna break, just stay out of the way

Don't stick your hand in the motor of fate

Someday soon the gangsters and the sheriff in brown

Will be shooting each other down

So just don't stick around to dance in the crossfire

Dance in the crossfire

Take a waltz in the crossfire
