Reason 36
|
By Dave Sharp/ Nigel Twist
I've been told how to keep my place To build a house that suits my face Now I've gotta move And that is serous, kid. I was given the tools to help in a trade That I can't dig with a pick nor spade And you know as well as I do That makes no sense, kid.
Chorus:
I try to speak out or get spoken for. And when I'm done, I'm gonna do it up some more. It's a long road to Where the old meets the new And I ain't gonna live this way I need the present And I need the future, too. And I ain't gonna live this way.
I've been far and I've been wide And I've seen things from many sides. And I walk the way The paving stones are laid, kid. And now and then I get these blues Up and down these avenues. But never so It gets me afraid, kid.
[Chorus:]
I've had deals I've called my way And I guess I've had the nerve to say That there's rules for others And other rules for me. So when I'm down and feeling bad And I've given up everything I've ever had I'm gonna give up more And give it up gladly, kid.
[Chorus:]
