Yesterday is just a dream I dont remember Tomorrow, still a hope Ive yet to endure Im out of time Im out of rhyme Im out of reason Seasons change and leave me out in the cold The storys old The tale been told by many a scholar Got a fistful of dollar And pocketful of love God above if you hear me cryin Ive tried to sell my soul But no ones buyin Lord, strike me down now if Im lyin Lord strike me down
Its gettin cold Its time for dyin
Come on and watch me shine Like the world is mine (check it out) today Come on and watch me shine (check it out) Like the world is mine today Watch me shine (check it out)
Then the man was free from sin free from sin Cast the first stone then began the violence began the violence Let the man whose words ring true Speak on up till his voice breaks through the silence through the silence Let the ones who lose their way Live to see just one more day in the sunshine La-la-la-la-la-la-laaa Let the ones who choose to stray Recognize the price theyll pay In their lifetime in their lifetime
Sit in the way and wait for my roads to cross You nail me down and you watch me bleed watch me bleed So lay my head against the earth Plant my body like a seed plant my body like a seed You cant always get the things you want, love (check it out) tell me what you want You get what you deserve Or maybe what you need tell me what you need So fill my hole with precious dirt, love Till the soil and part the weed
