the very last time that i saw stu
he was on his way out west
he said that he was trying to find himself
and something else
havin' a hell of a good time trying

and two weeks later i got a postcard
from texas
saying i've joined a travelling show
the impersonating duo of bella and ron
while she does tina he does the king
and all the harmonies i sing
suspicious minds to the acid queen

if you can get the ride
you wouldn't go any other way
take it a while
take it a while
cause this could be any other day

and they played throughout the southwest
all winter long
from hotel lounge to hotel lounge
ron likes liquor and bella loves speed
and stu's found a good mix in between
no matter where they tour
they end up wasted and wanting more

if you can get the ride
you wouldn't go any other way
take it a while
take it a while
cause this could be any other day

i'm on my way
i'm on my way
