Bob Welch ~ Outskirts


Written by bob welch and john carter. Last night red lights & sirens sound Nine miles on a back street looking out of town Out of touch going underground Looking into the mirror You can see 'em bearing down (chorus) Long road winding, headlights in the dark Don't know where we're going, but it can't be to far... Ten g's three for you the rest i'll keep No clues no avenues, it's a perfect scheme Outskirts hang a left at the hanging tree Cause they say they're going to get you But they won't mess with me (chorus) Long road burnin', you know you can't look back Cause everywhere you are turning You can't escape the fact... Yeah they're getting closer now Step on it man, you know they're gaining ground Not afraid to die untill right now I can almost feel them breathing, fear for me.. Last night murder one was in the air Johnny didn't mean to do it, he was really scared Outlaws runnin' hiding who knows where Next time your on the outskirts, i'll be waiting there... (chorus) Long road a winding, headlights in the dark Long road returning Like a knife in your heart I'm on the outskirts now... more free lyrics

Last night red lights & sirens sound
Nine miles on a back street looking out of town
Out of touch going underground
Looking into the mirror
You can see 'em bearing down

(chorus)
Long road winding, headlights in the dark
Don't know where we're going, but it can't be to far...

Ten g's three for you the rest i'll keep
No clues no avenues, it's a perfect scheme
Outskirts hang a left at the hanging tree
Cause they say they're going to get you
But they won't mess with me

(chorus)
Long road burnin', you know you can't look back
Cause everywhere you are turning
You can't escape the fact...

Yeah they're getting closer now
Step on it man, you know they're gaining ground
Not afraid to die untill right now
I can almost feel them breathing, fear for me..

Last night murder one was in the air
Johnny didn't mean to do it, he was really scared
Outlaws runnin' hiding who knows where
Next time your on the outskirts, i'll be waiting there...

(chorus)

Long road a winding, headlights in the dark
Long road returning
Like a knife in your heart

I'm on the outskirts now...

Globalized Sounds

Today, beautiful European and American music, an Afrobeats recorded in Lagos, can play in headphones in Tokyo; a South Korean idol group can fill an Argentine stadium to capacity. On Spotify, the playback volume of African music has increased by 500% in five years; K-pop has already transcended the Asian border and become a common language for young people all over the world; Latin music has consistently topped the streaming charts for several consecutive years. The world is getting smaller while the scope of music is expanding.

The Power of the Scene

When the lights dim and the first note is played, strangers become synchronized. The tremor when thousands sing together, and the melody that still echoes after the crowd disperses - this is an experience that no screen can convey. We look forward to the return of large-scale concerts to the essence of music, and we also look forward to small livehouses continuing to nourish the most vibrant soil of music.

Crossing Borders

Music transcends languages - even if you don't understand the lyrics, you can still shed tears or dance. It transcends cultures - the drumbeats of Nigeria and the chants of Iceland coexist under the same sky. It transcends generations - a song from half a century ago can still bring tears to the eyes of today's young people.

We Create Together

The future of global music is not determined by algorithms, nor is it monopolized by a few giants. It is shaped by every person who presses the play button. Maintain your curiosity, step out of your comfort zone. Support independent musicians and attend live performances. Seek connections through music - because we believe that a song can change a day, and music can change the world.
