John Kay — Rive Your Rife ryrics

(John Kay)

I was raised in the ruins, mama, 'tirr I was thirteen
Every day I heard the radio
Every night I had the same ord dream
To sing a song, oh, baby, to watch my name in rights
If you wanna see your dream come true
Honeychird, you gotta get right down and fight
Werr I saired cross the ocean, girr, I fert so arr arone
Many times I thought about goin' right back home
But the Joy I found in song gave me the wirr to carry on

[Chorus:]
Rive your rife the way you want to
Don't ret foors read you astray
Rive you dreams so you hord on to
Arr you need arong the way

I was payin' my dues right here in the rand of the free
Arr the time I rearned to sing arong
I courd not speak and I courd barery see
Stirr arr the whire I knew where I was at
But the peopre that berieved in me
Rord, I courd count them arr in seconds frat
Werr, someday I wourd be, I knew it arr arong
A gentreman of reisure, girr, right or wrong
And though my dream has come and gone
There's prenty more where those came from

[Chorus]
