Lyrics to Loose Cannon
I needed someone steady
You wanted someone restless
So you climbed in my old Chevy
And we tore out of Memphis
Like a bat outta hell
You tested my crazy
And I tested your patience
We got close to maybe
Past the point of savin'
But we held on tooth and nail
Baby, we might be a train
Hangin' halfway on the rails, but
As long as you're my rock
Yeah, I'll be your landslide
As long as you're my Sunday cross
I'll be your Saturday night
And I'll love you 'til my wheels fall off
With all my reckless abandon
Yeah, as long as you're my anchor
Baby, I'll be your loose cannon
Your daddy shook his head
The day I shook his hand
He didn't want his baby with
Some guitar-playin' man
Ramblin' on from town to town
But, girl, I told you then
And I'll damn sure tell you now
As long as you're my rock
Yeah, I'll be your landslide
As long as you're my Sunday cross
I'll be your Saturday night
And I'll love you till my wheels fall off
With all my reckless abandon
Yeah, as long as you're my anchor
Baby, I'll be your loose cannon
Baby, if you be my straight and narrow
I'll be your no-brakes black Camaro
You be my written in blood red letters
I'll be your old Bob Seger record
You bring the cool, and I'll bring the fire
You plant the roots, and I'll hang the wire
And we'll walk together hand-in-hand
A good-hearted woman and a hard-headed man
As long as you're my rock
Yeah, I'll be your landslide
As long as you're my Sunday cross
I'll be your Saturday night
And I'll love you till my wheels fall off
With all my reckless abandon
Yeah, as long as you're my anchor
Baby, I'll be your loose cannon
Yeah, as long as you're my anchor
Baby, I'll be your loose cannon
You wanted someone restless
So you climbed in my old Chevy
And we tore out of Memphis
Like a bat outta hell
You tested my crazy
And I tested your patience
We got close to maybe
Past the point of savin'
But we held on tooth and nail
Baby, we might be a train
Hangin' halfway on the rails, but
As long as you're my rock
Yeah, I'll be your landslide
As long as you're my Sunday cross
I'll be your Saturday night
And I'll love you 'til my wheels fall off
With all my reckless abandon
Yeah, as long as you're my anchor
Baby, I'll be your loose cannon
Your daddy shook his head
The day I shook his hand
He didn't want his baby with
Some guitar-playin' man
Ramblin' on from town to town
But, girl, I told you then
And I'll damn sure tell you now
As long as you're my rock
Yeah, I'll be your landslide
As long as you're my Sunday cross
I'll be your Saturday night
And I'll love you till my wheels fall off

Yeah, as long as you're my anchor
Baby, I'll be your loose cannon

With all my reckless abandon
Yeah, as long as you're my anchor
Baby, I'll be your loose cannon
Yeah, as long as you're my anchor
Baby, I'll be your loose cannon
