Well, it's 3:00 AM in the combat zone
Gentlemen, start your engines
You can close this bar, but baby, I ain't going
Gentlemen, start your engines
If you lock up the whiskey, give me gasoline
Got a seven grand red light on the black machine
The dead can dream of sleeping, if you know what I mean
Gentlemen, start your engines
Got a little girl here, it'd have been a four
Gentlemen, start your engines
She's gonna do us all and then beg for more
Gentlemen, start your engines
It's dark outside, but it's darker within
Check the back of my jacket just to see my grin
They don't write poems about the state I'm in
Gentlemen, start your engines
One of these days, I'm gonna pull myself together
Soon as I finish tearing myself apart
Let me tell you, honey, there's some mighty stormy weather
Rolling round the caverns of my heart
When the police come, you better let 'em in
Gentlemen, start your engines
Don't forget to tell 'em what a sport I've been
Gentlemen, start your engines
Got a head full of vintage TNT
Gonna blow me up instead of burying me
If you don't like trouble, better leave me be
Gentlemen, start your engines
G- G- Gentlemen, start your engines
G- G- Gentlemen, start
G- G- Gentlemen, start
G- G- Gentlemen, start your engines
Like the devil's Mustangs, I've been riding hell for leather
Put away angry and angry in the dark
Let me tell you, honey, there's some mighty stormy weather
Rolling round the caverns of my heart
