Dead Reckoning Lyrics - Ratt

You know you're livin' a lie when you just can't win 

Pulling in first prize ain't gonna give you a break 

You know I'm kickin' back, I had a broken wing 

Me and my shadow are the next best thing 

I need someone 

You know it might take more than you give to me 

Are you gun-shy, are you listening? 

What we got here is dead reckoning 

And take me in for the night in the right time zone 

We'll do what you like, make a left turn home 

I put out the light, you're turnin' way too red 

No stop sign straight up ahead 

You need so much 

So much sympathy 

That's more than I can say 

You know it's not too late 

Are you gun-shy, are you listening? 

What we got here is dead reckoning 

And if it feels good, we'll do it again 

See your way clear, dead reckoning 

Tell me why, tell me why 

Are you listening? 

Are you listening? 

Are you listening? 

Are you listening? 

You mean so much 

So much to me 

That's more than I can say 

You know it's not too late 

Are you gun-shy, are you listening? 

What we got here is dead reckoning 

And if it feels good, we'll do it again 

See your way clear, dead reckoning, yeah 

What we got here is dead reckoning 

What we got here is dead reckoning
