Please don't dominate the rap, Jack |
|
If you got nothing new to say |
|
If you please, don't back up the track |
|
This train got to run today |
|
Spent a little time on the mountain |
|
Spent a little time on the hill |
|
Heard someone say: Better run away |
|
Others say: You better stand still |
|
Now I don't know but I been told |
|
It's hard to run with the weight of gold |
|
Other hand I heard it said |
|
It's just as hard with the weight of lead |
|
Who can deny? Who can deny? |
|
It's not just a change in style |
|
One step done and another begun |
|
In I wonder how many miles? |
|
Spent a little time on the mountain |
|
Spent a little time on the hill |
|
Things went down we don't understand |
|
But I think in time we well |
|
Now I don't know but I been told |
|
In the heat of the sun a man died of cold |
|
Do we keep on coming or stand and wait |
|
With the sun so dark and the hour so late? |
|
You can't overlook the Jack, Jack |
|
Of any other highway to ride |
|
It's got no signs or dividing lines |
|
And very few rules to guide |
|
Spent a little time on the mountain |
|
Spent a little time on the hill |
|
I saw things getting out of hand |
|
I guess they always will |
|
I don't know but I been told |
|
If the horse don't pull you got to carry the load |
|
I don't know whose back's that strong |
|
Maybe find out before too long |
|
One way or another |
|
One way or another |
|
One way or another |
|
This darkness got to give |
