[Intro]
Thank you
Thank you very much

[Verse 1]
Well, these are the ropes, the tricks of the trade
The rules of the road
I'm just one of those dopes for whom they were made
I'm a fool of the road
You follow that kiss and recklessly miss
A bend of the road
Then suddenly this
The end of the road

[Verse 2]
Well, love is a hoax, a glittering string
Of little white lies
But these are the jokes
That's why they bring tears to your eyes
Well, love often shows a funny return
The brighter it glows, the longer you burn
And Lord only knows love has little concern
For the fools of the road

[Outro]
But that's how it goes
You live and you learn
The rules of the road
