I was wrong to think that I could ever trust in you. I was wrong to think that you might want to trust me, too. . Here I am, here I am. Here I stand. Here I am, here I am, here I am, here I stand.
Since the moment I spotted you. Like walking around with little wings on my shoes. My stomach's filled with the butterflies. And it's alright. . Bouncing round from cloud to cloud.
What are you waiting for wow oh (oh oh oh). What are you waiting for wow oh (oh oh oh). Are you waiting on a lightening strike. Are you waiting for the perfect night.
One more depending on a prayer. And we all look away. People pretending everywhere. It's just another day. There's bullets flying through the air. And they still carry on.

I don't look for no worries. Worries and troubles come around. I don't look for no worries. Worries and troubles come around. World keep on turning. Got to keep my feet on the ground.
(papa lightfoot). . Wine women and whisky. Goin' be the death of me. Wine women and whisky. Goin' be the death of me. I'm riding and I'm running. But still in misery.
You better take it easy baby. Before you go away. You keep me worried. And you get yours one day. . Watch your step. Watch your step. Watch your step.
(Ellis McDaniels). . I walked forty-seven miles of barbed wire. Got cobra snake for a neck tie. Got a brand new house on the roadside. Made from rattlesnake hide(?).
(john crippen aka johnny guitar/dave tice). . Well my baby went and left me for another man because I could not save a cent. She got up, got out, got all her possessions and down the road she went.
(wilko johnson). . Started out feeling good. Some other moment in another neighbourhood. Can't remember what went wrong. But I know I been some places and I know I stayed too long.
(rufus thomas). . Baby, back. Dressed in black. Silver buttons all down her back. High hose, tippy toes. She broke the needle and she can sew. . Walking the dog.
[Verse 1]. The way that it's been going. I don't want anyone to know. The way that I've been thinking. I'm ashamed to let it show. The way that I've been spending.
I barely lived today. It isn't fair. I barely live the day to the night. I lost my hope today. It isn't fair. That I don't live or die. I walk alone at night.
Next thing you know your a slave. Can you feel the tension on the rise?. Do you hear the people's silent cries?. Kids trying to grab the American dream.
Wake up in the morning. Go push to get paid. Don't mind the work. But to the grind you're a slave. While other people prosper. You got to survive. You got a wife.
Don't try to hide. The mistakes I made this time. But please try and listen. Cause I'm breaking my heart tonight. So you can see what's inside. Cause wherever you go, well that's where I'll go.
Conjure up the good. Like you would. When you were young. . Souls within the plastic. And all was magic. And innocent. . Cigarettes in lavatories. I reminisce on odd childhood things.
The story of my life I can't quite comprehend. Don't tell me if you know how it ends. When everywhere you go feels like a mirror maze. And you're not sure how you're stuck in this place.
