Seals & Crofts - Hustle lyrics

(lyrics by Paul Williams; music by Charles Fox, 1977)

From the album ONE ON ONE (1977).

Pull the stops out, watch my hustle.

Would you believe I was once a. . .[?]

Would you believe I was even as shy as a child.

It's so hard for the mind to fathom, so don't try.

I feel like tripping the light fantastic. I've never been more enthusiastic.

My mind. . . [?]

I'm a stone gladiator on a mood elevator. In the thick of the fight, I just smile.

Pull the stops out, watch my hustle.

(repeat)
