Lyrics
[Verse 1: Buck Dharma] Home in the valley, home in the city Home isn't pretty, ain't no home for me Home in the darkness, home on the highway Home isn't my way, home I'll never be [Pre-Chorus: Buck Dharma] Burn out the day Burn out the night I've seen Sun's freezin', and lives that were through I'm livin' for givin' the devil his due An' I'm burnin', I'm burnin', I'm burnin' for you I'm burnin', I'm burnin', I'm burnin' for you! [Verse 2: Buck Dharma] Time is the essence, time is the season Time ain't no reason, got no time to slow Time everlasting, time to play B-sides Time ain't on my side, time I'll never know [Pre-Chorus: Buck Dharma] Burn out the day Burn out the night I'm not the one to tell you what's wrong and what's right I've seen suns that were freezing and lives that were through But I'm burnin', I'm burnin', I'm burnin' for you I'm burnin', I'm burnin', I'm burnin' for you! [Guitar Solo] [Pre-Chorus: Buck Dharma] Burn out the day Burn out the night I can't see no reason to put up a fight I'm livin' for givin' the devil his due An' I'm burnin', I'm burnin', I'm burnin' for you I'm burnin', I'm burnin', I'm burnin' for you I'm burnin', I'm burnin', I'm burnin' for you I'm burnin', I'm burnin', I'm burnin' for you!
