Brian Fallon - Steve McQueen Lyrics






I could take my time and I can speed you up
I could pull you in, you can't get enough
Let's go slip-sliding in my veins

Cause this life is only chains
It's nothing like the colors in my dreams
I just wanted to be Steve McQueen
And my horses of English racing green
You and me in British racing green

And it could hold us down
They can break your pride
And if it gets too rough, well you just climb inside
Let's go slip-sliding in my veins

Cause this life is only chains
It's nothing like the colors in my dreams
I just want to be Steve McQueen
With my horses of English racing green
You and me in British racing green

And don't you know that you and I, we're never going home
And since we don't wanna be alone
Here we go, sliding in my veins

Cause this life is only chains
It's nothing like the colors in my dreams
And I just wanted to be Steve McQueen
With my horses of English racing green
You and me in British racing green

Cause this life is always the same
It's nothing like the colors in our dreams
We just wanted to be Steve McQueen
With our horses of English racing green
You and me in British racing green
You and me, Steve McQueen

    I wonder if Brian Fallon is a Film Nerd?

    Heres looking at you kid, Cowgirls sing the blues, Wooderson, Mullholland Drive, Could of been a contender,.

    He references old film stars Steve Mcqueen, Judy Garland, and Aubry Hephbrun.

    I wonder if I'm missing any thing else?

    Film Noir on 59' Sound Album. He references actress Marilyn Monroe.

  15. k.... s....

    Brian think you for continuing to make beautiful songs❤️❤️❤️

  16. D.... H....

    I enjoy how his lyrics are never predictable. So many bands rhyme/write lyrics lazily. Good song for a rainy day. I dig it

  17. J.... L....

    Another beautiful song. Brian makes my day.

  18. B.... C....

    Great song. Love the melody line. I guess it had to be Steve McQueen because nothing rhymes with Charles Bronson.

    B.... C....

    @NOSTALGIATUBE LOL nice one!  I'm proven wrong.

    B.... C....

    +Bill Conway Charles Bronson, Who is clearly awesome, he was getting some bronzing, whilst chilling in Boston, but he then got an indoctrine, for the terrible cult of Wisonsin, so he hid his with an intelligent dolphin, until he was old and put in his coffin....

    B.... C....

    +Bill Conway I may have pushed some rhyming boundries

    B.... C....

    +Bill Conway first thing i thought was, It does what is say's on the tin,quite fitting really

    B.... C....

    Steve McQueen has a notoriety more like the one Brian Fallon is going for, no?

  19. K.... C....

    give us rosemary!

  20. C.... H....

    Very nicely done. Love how at 0:31 secs the bass and subtle guitars "kick in".

  21. R.... L....

    wow. he is just that good.

  27. i.... ....

    i can literally listen to his raw voice all day

  28. D.... C....

    I have loved all four songs releases off the album so far. I Cannot wait for the full album!

  29. T.... A....

    Drove from Illinois to Nashville to see him in January. This album is going to be absolutely incredible. Brian Fallon never ceases to amaze me. The coolest part of that concert was that he has never looked happier. I'm glad he's finally doing what he wants to do even if The Gaslight Anthem was my favorite band. Every single from Painkillers has been great. Can't wait to hear the new version of Long Drives.

    T.... A....

    I was at that show! was really great, the new album should be amazing!!

    T.... A....

    Gaslight didn't break up, it's just a break. I do agree with you about the album, incredible.
    By your name I can say you sat too much by your bedside, with papers and poetry about Estella. :D

    T.... A....

    Made it the name of the band since Gaslight was a huge inspiration. :)

    T.... A....

    No Chicago show on the tour? Dang. He just played the Bay Area and was wearing a hat he said he bought in Nashville. That must have been a place he loved playing on this tour. Did he play this song?

  30. E.... H....

    Beautiful. Can't wait to hear the whole album!

  31. A.... J....

    Stunning.
