I know a man working two jobs a day, his wife she does the same, they
say were playing by the same set of rules, but I think were playing a
different game, I know a man playing rock and roll in a bar, he’s been
there a long long time, the only thing he wants to say, is this song is
mine.
Gotta keep pushing, make things come out right, it aint easy to get up in
the morning, but it’s just as hard to go to bed at night.
I’ve walked down this street with you so many times girl, we might as well
call it home, it’s just a shady street it’s not London Paris or Rome, but
were just two teardrops in this river baby, not even safe in case of a
flood, life don’t want that much from us just a little sweat and a little
blood.
Gotta keep pushing, make things come out right, it aint easy to get up in
the morning, but it’s just as hard to go to bed at night.
There’s been good men thru the ages, trying to keep this world in tune,
but it don’t work like that, you might as well try to paint the moon,
anytime somebody’s willing to die for something, you can rest assured
there’s somebody willing to kill for it too, so just try try try , but there’s
not that much you can do.
Gotta keep pushing, make things come out right, it aint easy to get up in
the morning, but it’s just as hard to go to bed at night.
