Mama told me not to come in the evening sun
We're going down the tracks
Baby, do you hear me? I'm on my way to the promised land
Don't you ever need me, where's my gun?

Runnin' into the rage of a hurricane
Runnin' into the eye of the storm
Runnin' into the rage of a hurricane
Mama told me not to go on

I was out for the weekend
Even just to flirt with you
When I saw you standing at the corner of Billy's Pub
Baggin' for a hand of dollars
You cheated my wheel of fortune
Wrapped me around your fingers
I crossed the Bridge of lust
I was tangled in your net of linger
Don't you ever need me, where's my gun?

Runnin' into the rage of a hurricane
Runnin' into the eye of the storm
Runnin' into the rage of a hurricane
Mama told me not to go on
I felt a hammer in my brain
Don't let you drive in insane
I know you'll never learn
When worse comes to worse

I'm spending such a long time
Thinking about what you mean to me
I decided you're the wrong one, but there's a magnet in me
Telling me there's no desert I can hide
No ladder I can't climb
And I you hear the wolf howl baby
You can bet, I'm not your side
Don't you ever need me, where's my gun?

Runnin' into the rage of a hurricane
Runnin' into the eye of the storm
Runnin' into the rage of a hurricane
Mama told me not to go on
Runnin' into the rage of a hurricane
Runnin' into the rage of a hurricane
Runnin', oh no, no, no
