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
