Living Against The River

(j.p. maunick)



In the early morning light you step into the cold

Your curses freeze mid air, the bus is late

You've got to get to work on time, your job is on the line

Soon you'll start again, the same routine



Deep inside your mind, the dreamers dream you'll find

As the day is long, it keeps you moving on

Trying to stay ahead as best you can



Sweep away the notion of a revolution

Do it for yourself



Chorus:

(there's no stoppin')

(living against the river)

Do what you do what you do

(got to keep pushing)

(when you're living against the river)

Do what you do what you do



As the light begins to fade and you're heading back for home

Your head is hanging low, you're feeling blue

From the corner of your eyes, under neon lights you see

The old man in the snow with worn out shoes



Sweep away the notion of a revolution

Do it for yourself



Chorus



Repeat (fade)
