Meat Loaf - Wolf At Your Door lyrics

Two a.m. with the lost and the lonely

Walkin` past the kids, comin` back from the party

Smiles on their faces, you remember so well how it was

Nights in the back of that Buick that you got runnin`

Your baby by your side, told the whole world you`re comin`

Chorus:

Work so hard to do what is right

Believed in what you`re doin`,

but so many fights

Trusted too many, believed too much,

workin` your life to the bone

There`s a wolf at your door,

he wants your money, wants your soul

A wolf at your door, you give it all, he wants more

There`s a wolf at your door,

he says he`s playin` for keeps

Breathin` down your neck, boy

it`s sure hard to sleep

With a wolf at your door

They`ll take it away, when you`re not lookin`

Look you in the eyes, tell you how good they`re doin`

Smiles on their faces, are lies to keep you from knowin`

You`re not guilty, you are the victim,

but you still pay for the crime

Don`t look for trouble, it`ll always find you in time

Work so hard to do what is right

Believed in what you`re doin`,

but so many fights

Trusted too many, relieved too much,

workin` your life to the bone

There`s a wolf at your door,

he says he`s playin` for keeps

Breathin` down your neck, boy

it`s sure hard to sleep

With a wolf at your door

It won`t be broken, I`ll fight `til I drop,

blood burnin` hot in my veins

But they won`t be satisfied until they take everything

(chorus repeats out...)
