Lyrics
:
Well I'm always getting told I gotta to keep my place And to build a little house that suits my face But I can't stand still and that is serious Then I was given the tools to help in a trade I can't even dig with a pick nor spade And you know as well as I do That makes no sense I try to speak out or get spoken for And I leave smilin' as you flip your coin some more Now it's a long road to Where the old meets the new And I ain't going to live this way Now I've seen the present And I've seen the future too And I ain't gonna live this way Hey hey hey hey Now well Well I've done a lot deals that I called my way And I guess I've always had the kind of nerve to say That there's rulesfor suckers but there ain't no rules for me So if you've ever had the blues or you're feeling bad Or you've given up on justa'bout all you've had Then listen up to what I'm gonna say I try to speak out or get spoken for And I leave smilin' as you flip your coin some more Well it's a long road to Where the old meets the new And I ain't going to live this way Now I've seen the present And I've seen the future too And I ain't gonna live this way Hey hey hey hey Well your deceited little lies Have deceived you good And now I gotta hope that you realise And think before you next speak out of turn And before you take on everything that's on the plate I hope, I hope you find it's not too late To choose exactly where you're gonna eat your food I try to speak out or get spoken for And I leave smilin' as you flip your coin some more Well it's a long road to Where the old meets the new And I ain't going to live this way Now I've seen the present And I've seen the future too And I ain't gonna live this way Hey hey hey hey Hey hey hey hey Hey hey hey hey
