It's Your World

(album: It's The World Gone Crazy - 1981)

Well this old lonely lonely street
Reminds me of a dream that I once had and then I lost my way
And them years, they just roll and they're taking their toll
And I keep paying the cost

Well I'm not trying to please nobody but me
But can't you see I tow the line, religiously
Well you won't be here for ever, so just hang on to your heart
And don't let them old de-emons tear you apart

'Cause it's your world, boys and girls
It's your world 'til your life is through
If it was gone tomorrow you wouldn't have anything
It wouldn't be nothi-ing without you, hey, without you

You can struggle and strive and you can handle your life
But they still want blood, yeah
So just stroll like that river and stick to your ground
A-just like this old mother earth

Well I was born free and I'll prob'ly die young
But I'll leave some happy people with some good songs that I've sung
Well you won't be here forever, so just hang on to your heart, yeah
And don't let them old de-emons tear you apart

'Cause it's your world boys and girls
It's your world 'til your life is through
If it was gone tomorrow you wouldn't have anything
It wouldn't be nothing without you, hey, without you

Well it wouldn't be nothing, no nothing
No, it wouldn't be nothing without y'all
Well it wouldn't be nothing, no nothing
Well it wouldn't be nothing without you

Well it wouldn't be nothing, no nothing
Well it wouldn't be nothing without you
Well it wouldn't be nothing, no it wouldn't be nothing
No, no, no, nothing, it would be nothing without you, yeah
Well it wouldn't be
