Paradise Bar - Deep Purple

Hey, it was later in September and the leaves were on the ground\nA night chill in the autumn air as I pushed the pedal down\nThe road was slick, I drove too quick and lost it on a bend\nI overtook the future, went beyond the bitter end\nI’m in paradise\nAn old man in a pick-up truck offered me a ride\nSomehow he knew where I was going, invited me inside\nHe floored me with weird looks, said «Let's go find a bar»\nThe band is pretty good with Jimi Hendrix on guitar\nI’m in paradise\nAt the paradise bar\nYou have to cry no tears\nOh baby, I’m alright here\nThey said «You'll never go up there, you’ll end up down below»\nDidn’t quite turn out that way, but how were they to know?\nAnd I’m somewhere else entirely, the drinks are all for free\nMy paradise is everything I wanted it to be\nI’m in paradise\nAt the paradise bar
