Feast or famine, God or mammon,
Priest or shaman, opposites attract
Saints and sinners, losers,
winners, rank beginners,
there's no going back.
My old man was a dreamer,
dreamed his life away.
Sometimes dreams are realer
than the roles we play
Daddy used to say
You don't walk another man's path
You don't sing another man's song
And you don't play
the horse of Babylon
The road is never straight
The way is always long
One thing I can say before I'm gone
Life is never wrong
People used to laugh and say
You never ought to make
the truth your bride
Marry money, fill your tummy
Only junkies live to get that high
My first love was beauty
She tried so hard to please
And then she introduced
me to the beast
Knocked me to my knees
Don't walk another man's path
You don't sing another man's song
You don't play the horse of Babylon
The road is never straight,
the way is always long
One thing I can say before I'm gone
Life is never wrong
Hold your head up high,
no matter what the weight
Look life in the eye , don't hesitate
Life won't wait
You don't walk another man's path
You don't sing another man's song
You don't play the horse of Babylon
The road is never straight,
the way is always long
One thing I can say before I'm gone
Life is never wrong
You
