Slade - Beggars & Hangers-on lyrics

Well I know

You couldn't love me

Cause you're promised

To a wealthy man

Take a look

What are you seein'?

Should I go to see a healer

Nervous twitchin' in my hands

Nervous twitchin' in my head

God help me rid this feeling'

Cause I'm falling all to pieces

And I can't get out of bed

Beggars & hangers-on

Try to take you from me

Someone with a Bible

In his pocket

Clouding everywhere you see

Beggars & hanger-on

They chip it away

Bury your soul in the river

Cause the end

Is here to stay

God help me rid this feeling'

Cause I'm falling' all to pieces

And I can't get out of bed

I was wrong

I don't need you

It seems reckfess and unfair

Better day's are far behind

Buess that's another cross

I'll have to bear

I know that there's a time

And a reason

To take the ghost

And lock it up inside

And maybe I am down

But I'm not beaten

Like anything

We were born to die

Beggars & hangers-on

Try to take you from me

Someone with a Bible

In his pocket

Clauding everything you see

Beggars & hangers-on

They chip it away

Bury your soul in the river

Cause the end is here to stay

Begars & hangers-on

Beggars & hangers-on

No no no no

No no no no

No no no no
