Everyone experiences transitions in their life. When that happens the best thing to do it to cross the road and continue moving on.
Never give up.
lyrics
Across the road, across the road,
I got to find another set of clothes,
One that fits my simple ways.
And so that’s how this story goes.
Take me now for what I am,
Sometimes beaten down but I still stand.
The law is always knockin’ on my door. Tell me
What are they comin’ ‘round here for?
I walked the dog, sat on the grass,
so now the whole world can go and kiss my ass
I play my music all night long.
Why don’t you sing along?
La la la….. Di di di ….. It makes no difference to me
It ain’t over, it ain’t the end,
We’ve become even better than friends,
Raise yourself up and don’t be so down,
Remember friend – keep your feet on the ground.
This is my song, this is why,
I’ll give it all until the day that I die,
a smile is worth a million chips of gold. Stand back!
Now I’m growing old.
