Rick Springfield - Rock Of Life (12' Mix) Lyrics
I feel the big beat, the rock of lifeBig beat talk to me, waking up blind with the house on fireWell I pick up my guitar (I tune up), I look in the mirrorIt's like a stranger in my hand (the baby is crying)There comes a time when the boy must leave (get up), and the man has to enterFor the soul to understand (all of the changes)As if it ain't hard enough this life I'm living inI was caught with my guard down, when the world came knocking Chorus:I feel the big beat, the Rock of Life, big beat talk to me - hey, whooI feel the back beat, the Rock of Life, waking up blind with the house on fireIs it something in my head (look up) or the time of the seasonOr the little boy in my hands (must be the reason)Yeah, there's a new meaning in my life (a shake-up)But there's pain and confusionAnd I'm trying to understand (all of the changes)I've been cut so deep but I can't make it bleedI was caught with my head in the sand, when the world came knockingchorus(Solo)It ain't no perfect life, this one I'm living inAnd I was caught with my guard down, when the world came knockingchorus repeats 2x--------------------------------------------------------------------------
