作曲 : Graeme Clark & Tommy Cunningham & Neil Mitchell & Marti Pellow
Stop your pretending
Listen to what Ive got to say

How your heads went away

Only here for a day

And that grave I just made

Is for me when I get paid

Wont you wait a while

Move to the blue

Sometimes people dont want to say

Old time dancers dont die that way

See that grave Ive just made

Its for me when I get paid

Somebodys gotta hold back the river

Somebody like you

Do you love and surrender

Sometimes I dont feel I can remember

I think its fair to mention

About the days when I get paid

Somebodys gotta hold back the river

Somebody like you

Somebodys gotta hold back the river

Somebody like you

I want a little loving

I told you all to listen

But you never liked what you heard

I take what I am given

This may sound absurd

I share a double vision

That started the transition

Hey wheres jimmy jazz

Steady on the scale

I told you to listen

I told you all to listen

Somebodys gotta hold back the river

Somebody like you

Somebodys gotta hold back the river

Somebody like you

You know that somebody

You know that somebody

But it aint you
