First your mama and your papa |
|
Sent you to the finest school |
|
Never let it be said |
|
That their little darlin' was a fool |
|
So, with a credit card in your good name |
|
You were drawn like a moth to the flame |
|
To the people of the night |
|
Where you more or less lost your cool |
|
You had 20/20 vision |
|
And still you were walkin' 'round blind |
|
Yes and whether right or wrong |
|
I'd still tag along behind |
|
But you're flyin' too high for me |
|
And if this is how it's got to be |
|
Then it's time to say |
|
You go your way and |
|
I'll go mine |
|
It's been a gas but |
|
I'm gonna have to pass |
|
These are not people, no |
|
These are not my people |
|
And it looks like the end, my friend |
|
Gotta get in the wind, my friend |
|
You found yourself naked |
|
In the world with no place to hide |
|
Then you felt the pulse of your |
|
GodAnd He had died |
|
Then your rebels that have got no cause |
|
And your tigers that have got no claws |
|
They promised you world on a string |
|
But you know they lied |
|
You know, you said you'd be back |
|
In a black |
|
Cadillac limousine |
|
But you know, |
|
I'm inclined to think |
|
It's not the kind you mean' |
|
Cause when you fall down from off your cloud |
|
And you're just another face in the crowd |
|
They're gonna throw you away |
|
Like last week's magazines |
|
It's been a gas but |
|
I'm gonna have to pass |
|
These are not people, no, no |
|
These are not my people |
|
And it looks like the end, my friend |
|
I gotta get in the wind, my friend |
|
It looks like the end, my friend |
|
I gotta get in the wind, my friend |
|
It looks like the end, my friend |
|
Gotta get in the wind, my friend |
