Dance In The Crossfire

(Ralph Covert - Waterdog Music / ASCAP)

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

[Chorus]
Some day 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 home town 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
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
Dance in the crossfire...
Take a waltz in the crossfire
