| Sixteen years, what have I got
|
| I ain’t got money, and I ain’t got a job
|
| I hate this city, I hate this town
|
| Better get straight because they’re gunnin' you down
|
| Better cry tough
|
| ‘Cause I’m a man on a mission
|
| And I’m ready to go
|
| Better cry tough
|
| You better keep yourself from daylight
|
| I’m back on the streets again
|
| I’m back on the streets again
|
| I want it all, and I want it today
|
| No better time to throw my life away
|
| You say I’m crazy, but I’m better than you
|
| You ain’t the one to tell me what to do
|
| Better cry tough
|
| ‘Cause I’m a man on a mission
|
| And I’m ready to go
|
| Better cry tough
|
| You better keep yourself from daylight
|
| I’m back on the streets again
|
| I’m back on the streets again
|
| Tell me where you wanna go
|
| I’d just like to know
|
| These gray mothers are getting me down
|
| And the world is turning far too slow
|
| Sixteen years, what have I got
|
| I ain’t got money, and I ain’t got a job
|
| I hate this city, I hate this town
|
| Better get straight ‘cause they’re gunnin' you down
|
| Better cry tough
|
| Better cry tough
|
| Better cry tough
|
| You better keep yourself from daylight
|
| I’m back on the streets again
|
| I’m back on the streets again
|
| (again, again)
|
| Lord, please, can you save my soul
|
| I’m alone in the dark with no place to go
|
| No lifeboat to rescue me
|
| I’m the one with the power to set me free
|
| I want it all, and I want it today
|
| (today, day)
|
| I want it all, and I want it today
|
| I want it all and I want it today
|
| Tell me where you wanna go
|
| I’d just like to know
|
| These are getting me down
|
| And the world is turning far too slow
|
| Better cry tough
|
| ‘Cause I’m a man on a mission
|
| And I’m ready to go
|
| Better cry tough
|
| You better keep yourself from daylight
|
| Better cry tough
|
| Cry
|
| Better cry tough
|
| Oh, yeah
|
| Better cry tough
|
| You better keep yourself
|
| I’m back on the streets again
|
| I’m back on the streets again
|
| I want it all, and I want it today
|
| Yeah
|
| I want it, and I want it today, yeah
|
| Oh
|
| I want it all, and I want it today
|
| Whoa
|
| I want it all, and I want it today
|
| Day |
