The Old Style Raiders Songtext

von Jamie T

Loaded uptown till your feet fall off
Hold yourself down ′til you can't come up
Hard times in the promised land
Looking for a thief in the common man
Every little sign is a thing to you
Every line′s just another clue
We see the battle of the boy in blue
That made you steal the heart

'Cause it's not fair to grow inside
When from the outside in, it looks so right
But inside our life, it seems unkind
And when the wolves they scream like killing dogs
′Cause it′s not fair to tell a lie
Forever unwashed dream that seems so rife
And if you didn't know bettеr, you′d swear sometimes
You nеver knew love

Toe the line, hard to find
Told to fight for something you loved in life

Worry deep down 'til you′re skin and bone
Mould yourself now that the picture's stopped
Hard yards in the castle sand
Slipping through the fingers of a modern man
Every little sign is a thing is true
Every town is another you
We′ll see the father of your mother's blues
That made you fall apart

'Cause it′s not fair to grow inside
When from the outside in, it looks so right
But inside our life, it seems unkind
And when the wolves they scream like killing dogs
′Cause it's not fair to tell a lie
Forever unwashed dream that seems so rife
And if you didn′t know better, you'd swear sometimes
You never knew love

Toe the line, hard to find
Told to fight for something you loved in life
Toe the line, cold but kind
Hard to find your something to love in life

Have you ever had to walk away
From something that′s cold light in the light of day?
My town, my fault
I'm feeling lost in haze
I never had to walk away
But can I be on your mind?
I′ve seldom lost my way
You never knew nothing lies

Have you ever had to walk away
From something that you loved yesterday?
I saw the three-four-five
The three looked lost in yester me
I never had to walk away
Now can I be on your mind?
I seldom lost my way
'Cause you never knew love

Toe the line, hard to find
Told to fight for something you loved in life
Toe the line, cold but kind
Call out to find your something to love in life

In life, in life, in life
In life, in life, in life
In life, in life, in life
In life, in life, in life
