Freedom came my way that night
just like a jet plane in and out of sight
i was hauling ass at a million miles an hour
wondering how hard i'd hit
When they came into the station
they said i was bad beyond repair
but i got no qualms with my situation
say here i am
So say cheri cheri won't you dare to
say cheri cheri won't you dare to
leave a message and your number please
tie them up all my old fantasies
put them in a big red bow and send them care of me
I'm taking a chance on the wind
i'm packing all my bags
taking a mistake i gotta make
then i'm glory bound
So i packed it up and i went to the winds
and i lived out of a vw bus for a year or two
ain't nothing but a pipe dream and my guitar
livin off of apple fields and old cigars
diggin this microphone checking it out every night all alone
the car battery is dead again so i got my head dead set against it
So say cheri cheri won't you dare to
say cheri cheri won't you dare to
leave a message and your number please
take the time to want to satisfy me
take all those fantasies and send them care of me
Chorus
