lyrics

bated breath and the guts to go
criss-crossing the continent, all aglow
leaving lovelorn, dating destiny
and living for the moment that she marries me

started this song in the southern states
rays by the river, sinning at the saint
hot and heavy when i hit the hay
in nola, usa

coast of california, the highway high
noise, narcotics, and the new york night
an unshaven shaman shaking down the day
and all manner of madness standing in my way

down in flames, with dice to roll
up in smoke, running roulette road
and man, america made a mess of me
when i messed with texas and tennessee

north east south west (coast to coast), baby, the trouble that I get into
north east south west (coast to coast), it ain't shit compared to loving you
north east south west (coast to coast), baby, the trouble that I get into
north east south west (coast to coast), it ain't shit, it's just kicks, and like the road i'm going on and on and on

flayed and gutted, so i've got to go
back home, hungry for a hand to hold
and no matter how much i fan the flames
canada always answers when i call her name

down and out, drinking dundas dry
up against the wall of a winter's night
toronto, i'm trusting you to cut the cane
cause i'm saving vancouver for a rainy day

north east south west (coast to coast), baby, the trouble that I get into
north east south west (coast to coast), it ain't shit compared to loving you
north east south west (coast to coast), baby, the trouble that I get into
north east south west (coast to coast), it ain't shit, it's just kicks, and like the road i'm going on and on and on

learn to let it go, baby
shake, rattle, and roll, baby
out of the city and scene
and into some trouble with me

we'll go north east south west
we'll go north east south west
we'll go north east south west
we'll go north east south west
