Big Star - The Ballad Of El Goodo Lyrics
Years ago, my heart was set to live, ohBut Ive been trying hard against unbelievable oddsIt gets so hard at times like now to hold onMy guns theyre waiting to be stuck byAt my side is godAnd there aint no one gonna turn me roundAint no one gonna turn me roundTheres people around who tell you that they knowThe places where they send you, and its easy to goTheyll zip you up and dress you downStand you in a rowBut you know you dont have toYou can just say noAnd there aint no one gonna turn me roundAint no one gonna turn me roundAint no one gonna turn me roundAint no one gonna turn me roundIve been built up and trustedBroke down and bustedBut theyll get theirs and well get oursJust if we canJust, ah, hold onHold onHold onHold onYears ago my heart was set to live, ohBut Ive been trying hard against strong oddsIt gets so hard at times like now to hold onWell, Ill fall if I dont fightAnd at my side is godAint no one gonna turn me roundAint no one gonna turn me roundAint no one gonna turn me roundAint no one gonna turn me roundHold onHold onHold onHold on[alternate lines of last verse:]Years ago I was all set to goAnd Ive been trying hard against long oddsIt gets so hard at times like this to even hang aroundI can either stand or fallAnd I believe Im gonna stand tall
