(A. Young M. Young B. Johnson)

Wrong track, wrong line

Fast train never run on time

Bad blood, bad news

Hangin' by a rope got nothin' to lose

Mad bull, see red

Comin' at me happy when I'm dead

Jump fence, got away

Ain't got a likin' for the games he play

What ya gonna do

Everybody tryin' to find you guilty

Make you wanna toe the line

Saved by

Saved in the nick in time

I was saved in the nick



Slow plane, hard rain

Cold sweat and he show the strain

Look down, no ground

Black sky just the engine sound

Bail out, goodbye

Take my chances I don't wanna die

Count 10, just pray

The nick of time can save me any day

What ya gonna do

Everybody love a hero honey

Livin' on the danger line

Saved by

Saved in the nick in time

Saved in the nick in time



Loose sleep, get grief

Short day an' gettin' no relief

Quick punch, closed eye

You didn't do it you wonder why

Lynch mob, on your tail

Think they were searchin' for the holy grail

Leave town, got away

I didn't figure on them anyway

No I didn't

Everybody tryin' to find you guilty

Make you wanna toe the line

Saved by

Saved in the nick in time

In the nick of time

In the nick of time



I was saved in the nick of time
