There been times when I thought I couldn't last for long But now I think I'm able to carry on It's been a long, been a long time coming But I know a change is gonna come, oh yes it will

It was something I enjoyed doing and decided to give it a couple years, though I'm not making a lot of money now either!

Another Saturday night and I ain't got nobody.

Ooh, ah, ooh, ah, that's the sound of the men working on the chain gang.

I don't know what's up there / Beyond the sky

Don't know much about history Don't know much biology.

I say, as a singer grows older, his conception grows a little deeper, because he lives life and he understands what he is trying to say a little more. And I think this gives. If a singer tries to find out what's happening in life, it gives him a better insight on telling the story of the song he is trying to sing.
