Lyrics
:
Well, back in '75 When the kid was on the line He felt no pain 'Cause there was none He would bend in the wind Take in anything 'Like sniffin' roses And it was alright Until he fell And cut his hand He just could not understand He'd run away Blame pretense For defence Or plain innocence Said it's alright The harder it fights I'm one step closer to home The deeper it bites I'm one step closer to home You can tie my hands You can whip my back I can't give nothing 'Till the sky turns black I may get lost But I'm ONE STEP CLOSER TO HOME Oh yeah he ran Hitched, rides Travelled light Left his bags behind Said he'd lost them He said it's O.K. I get money and smile From place to place They don't mind I've had the heads of business men And I just gave them back again I've got no need For device, disguise Or for compromise And the more that I sweat I'm one step closer to home The tougher it gets I'm one step closer to home You can tie my hands You can whip my back I can't give nothing 'Til the sky turns black I may get lost I'm ONE STEP CLOSER TO HOME Ain't no need for this no more Surely you can help me out She said, I know a lot of people just like you You've got everything to live for and nothing to lose So break it all down Smash it all up I said, tear it down And build it up And the tougher it gets I'm one step closer to home And the deeper it gets I'm one step closer to home The harder it fights The deeper it bites The tougher it gets The more that I sweat You can tie my hands..
