The Guess Who - Hang on to Your Life lyrics
(Cummings-Winter)
Thinkin' ‘bout the people gone by
Screamin' that I don't wanna die
You can push your head
But don't you push it too far...
Thinkin' ‘bout it's here and it's real
Wonderin' how I really should feel
You can sell your soul
But don't you sell it too cheap...
Hang on to your life
Hang on to your life
Thinkin' ‘bout betraying a friend
Thinkin' ‘bout delaying the end
You can ride the wind
But don't you ride it too high...
Hang on to your life....
(Spoken, from Psalm 22)
They gaped upon me with their mouths, as a ravening and a roaring lion.
I am poured out like water, and all my bones are out of joint:
my heart is like wax; it is melted in the midst of my bowels.
My strength is dried up like a potsherd; and my tongue cleaveth to my
jaws; and thou hast brought me into the dust of death
