lyrics

It’s so desperately easy
And it makes no difference to me
It’s just like clockwork, like the blues
And it makes no difference, come on

It’s so desperately easy
And it makes no difference to me
It’s just like clockwork, like the blues
Two yeses make no, make no….
Take a punch, better roll, better do just what you’re told
Get up, man, that looked easy
It make no difference to me
Yeah, brother, come on….

I’m just a simple man
It doesn’t matter when I’m wrong
Life just rolls over me
Won’t try to understand my fate
Yeah, we’re all leaves rustling on the breeze

It’s so desperately amusing
And it makes no difference to me
I spent my lifetime just rising above adversity, baby
And it makes no difference, come on
Yeah brother, come on

I’m just a simple man
It doesn’t matter when I’m wrong
Life just rolls over me
Won’t try to understand my fate
Yeah, we’re all leaves rustling on the breeze

Stormy weather, gonna keep it together, baby, gonna get it right
Stormy weather, gonna keep it together, baby, get it right
Coming round to your house in the middle of the night
Gonna play some rock’n’roll, gonna keep everything alive
We’ve got that stormy weather, gonna keep it together
Yeah I’m getting it right, I’m getting it right, I’m getting it right
You’d better go now, lord knows, you’d better go no

Oh yeah, it’s alright, come on round tonight
Oh yeah, brother it’s alright, let’s take it to the bridge, man we’ve gotta get out of here
I don’t wanna lose your love… I don’t wanna lose your love and honey, I know
Oh yeah, baby it’s alright, better take it to the bridge, man, we’ve gotta get outta here
