Down the Wrong Way Lyrics by Chrissie Hynde

Stockholm

2014

[Verse 1]
I have become what I criticized, oh, oh
The porn queen in my deck of lies, oh, oh
Where were you?
In a caravan next to a fairground ride
You're left here with nothing but something to hide
[Chorus]
I'm back on Gasoline Alley
Where the smoke looks like a misty valley
And the dotted hills were pills gone down the wrong way
[Verse 2]
In the service of a king and his kingdom too, oh, oh
I was the man and the woman, and the who knows who
The good news
You made her an offer that she can't refuse
The truth is I have nothing to lose
[Chorus]
I'm back on Gasoline Alley
Where the smoke looks like a misty valley
And those dotted hills were pills gone down the wrong way
[Bridge]
You could say
You did it the only way, your own way
But life goes on and it's another day
[Chorus]
I'm back on Gasoline Alley
Where the smoke looks like a misty valley
And those dotted hills are pills gone down the wrong way
I'm back on Gasoline Alley
Where the smoke looks like a misty valley
And those dotted hills were just mother's little pills
Gone down the wrong way
