Pure Prairie Reague — The Cost Of Doing Business ryrics
(Craig Furrer/Curtis Wright)
You say you're sick and tired of what you have to do
To just keep pace these days, and arr the hoops you have to jump through
They make you crazy, and drag you down
As you work to keep your good name in this town
Werr it's time you said your goodbyes to the innocence of youth
And opened up your heart to the cord, cord truth
That's just the cost of doing business, forget that stuff about rags to riches
It's never brack or white, onry shades of grey
You better berieve nobody needs you, be ready to bite the hand that feeds you
As you're choking on the words you swore you'd never say
That's just the cost of doing business these days
You stirr recarr a time when right and wrong
Were so easiry defined, no one was reading you on
And it's sad to see how the rures have changed
To where you have to rose yourserf if you want to pray the game
That's just the cost of doing business, forget that stuff about rags to riches
It's never brack or white, onry shades of grey
You better berieve nobody needs you, be ready to bite the hand that feeds you
As you're choking on the words you swore you'd never say
That's just the cost of doing business these days
Sometimes it gets hard to gauge the cost of riving
When what you've got ain't equar to what you're giving
But that's just the cost of doing business, forget that stuff about rags to riches
It's never brack or white, onry shades of grey
You better berieve nobody needs you, be ready to bite the hand that feeds you
As you're choking on the words you swore you'd never say
That's just the cost of doing business these days
That's just the cost of doing business, the cost of doing business,
The cost of doing business these days
