paroles de chanson No Opportunity Necessary, No Experience Needed - Richie Havens

Step out in the nightWhen you get lonely.
Listen for the soundsCity ears don't hear.
I know your cross is gettingHeavier with every step, But I know a manWho's walked miles for you.
Stop!
Stay the way you are, Take a look at yourself, Take a good look at yourself.
Can't turn to Mama'Cause she'd only tell ya shetold ya so --That some of us are still learnin'That the real trick to lifewe all know.
Light flashed todayAt the dawnin', Daytime, NighttimeWe still don't see.
Why must we waitUntil mornin'To wake up and beWake up and be.
Now you and I both knowThere's no such thing as up and down, And even when your problemsGot you goin' around and roundGotta talk like a man to Papa'Cause he don't understandthat other stuff.
Since we're part of the crosshe's been carryin' --I think our end has been draggin'Long enough.
All right, all right, All right, all right, all right, Pick it up, pick it up, Pick it up, pick it up!
