Rick Springfield - Rock Of Life Lyrics
Big beat talk to meWaking up blind with the house on fireWell I pick up my guitar, (I tune up)I look in the mirrorIts 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 aint hard enough this life Im living inI was caught with my guard downWhen the world came knockingI feel the big beat, the rock of lifeBig beat talk to meI feel the back beat, the rock of lifeWaking up blind with the house on fireIs it something in my head (look up)Or the time of seasonOr the little boy in my hands (must be a reason)Yeah, theres new meaning in my life (a shake-up)But theres pain and confusionAnd Im trying to understand (all of the changes)Ive been cut so deep but I cant make it bleedI was caught with my head in the sandWhen the world came knockingI feel the big beat, the rock of lifeBig beat talk to meI feel the back beat, the rock of lifeIt aint no perfect lifeThis one Im living inAnd I was caught with my guard downWhen the world came knockingI feel the big beat, the rock of lifeBig beat talk to meI feel the back beat, the rock of life
