Further you rise the further you may drop
Where you land might be hard or soft
Many fools have made it to the top
And there's always some other fool ready to kick them off
But I'm a stone survivor
And I've seen this little world go 'round
I'm a straight through driver
And the ever spinning wheel don't get me down
Down or up, I play the blues
Might get rough, but I live the life I choose
And I ain't no apologizer
I'm a stone survivor
Some are in for the long run
(ah ooh)
Some will peak before they're even twenty-one
Some lay down when their lucky stars are gone
When my stars don't shine I just keep on keepin' on
I'm a stone survivor
And I've seen this little world go 'round
I'm a straight through driver
And the ever spinning wheel don't get me down
Down or up, I play the blues
Might get rough, but I live the life I choose
And I ain't no apologizer
I'm a stone survivor
(Oh, look out!)
You might be pretty as a peach
(ah ooh)
Might beat that drum like Daniel can preach
Warm every heart as far as your voice can reach
But if you just don't get it, ain't no school that can teach
I'm a stone survivor
And I've seen this little world go 'round
I'm a straight through driver
And the ever spinning wheel don't get me down
Down or up, I play the blues
Might get rough, but I live the life I choose
And I ain't no apologizer
I'm a stone survivor
(Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah!)
I'm a stone survivor, yes I am
Oh, Lord
(stone survivor)
I'm a straight through driver
Wooooh!
