Lyrics I Won't Always Be Around - The Rockets

You tried to put me down
I think you should have known a little better
The tears you cry won't make me drown
You should have made them a whole lot wetter
So eat my steak and grains before they're all gone
I've a feeling that those hunger pains will be riding you for too long
And you know I won't always be around

You live a life of shame
I think you'll find it won't prove easy
Convince yourself that I'm to blame
When it's a fact you never tried to please me
So give back my presents, child, those things that you stole
I could change your life of style, those fancy clothes that you wore
And you know I won't always be around

Head hard as rock, no alibis
Be twice as cold, girl, with your soul
You and all your talk, all full of lies
For I had no intention of hurting your feelings

You tried to put me down
I think you should have known a little better
The tears you cry won't make me drown
You should have made them a whole lot wetter
So eat my steak and grains before they're all gone
I've a feeling that those hunger pains will be riding you for too long
And you know I won't always be around

And you know I won't always be around
And you know I won't always be around
