Yes i needed some time to get away.
i needed some peace of mind.
some peace of mind that'll stay.
so i thumbed it. now it's six in la.
maybe a greyhound could be my way.
Police and niggers, that's right,
get outta my way.
don't need to buy none of your
gold chains today.
now don't need no bracelets
clamped in front of my back.
just need my ticket 'till then,
won't you cut me some slack.
You're one in a million.
yeah that's what you are.
you're one in a million babe.
you're a shooting star.
maybe some day we'll see you.
before you make us cry.
you know we tried to reach you.
but you were much to high.
much too high...
much too high...
much too high...
Immigrants and faggots,
they make no sense to me.
they come to our country
and think they'll do as they please.
like start some mini-iran.
or spread some fucking disease.
and they talk so many god damn ways,
it's all greek to me.
Well some say i'm lazy,
and others say that's just me.
some say i'm crazy.
i guess i'll always be.
but it's been such a long time,
since i knew right from wrong.
it's all the means to and end i,m,
i keep it moving along.
hey, hey, hey, yeah.
You're one in a million.
you're a shooting star.
you're one in a million babe.
you know that you are.
maybe some day we'll see you.
before you make us cry.
you know we tried to reach you.
but you were much to high
much too high
much too high
Radicals and racists,
don't point your finger at me.
i'm a small town white boy,
dust tryin' to make ends meet.
don't need your religion,
don't watch that much tv.
just makin' my livin' baby.
well that's enough for me.

you're one in a million.
yeah that's what you are.
you're one in a million babe.
you're a shooting star.
maybe some day we'll see you.
before you make us cry.
you know we tried to reach you.
but you were much too high
much too high
much too high
