Rock Of Life (Album Version)

Rick Springfield
Album : VH1 Music First: Behind The Music - The Rick Springfield Collection

I feel the big beat
Rock Of Life
Big beat talk to me
Waking up blind
with the house on fire
Well I pick up my guitar
I tune up
I look in the mirror
It's 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 enter
For the soul to understand
all of the changes
As if it ain't hard enough
this life I'm living in
I was caught with my guard down
When the world came knocking
I feel the big beat
the Rock Of Life
Big beat talk to me
Hey Whoo
I feel the back beat
the Rock Of Life
Waking up blind
with the house on fire
Is it something
in my head look up
Or the time of season
Or the little boy in my hands
must be a reason
Yeah there's new meaning
in my life a shake-up
But there's pain and confusion
And I'm trying to understand
all of the changes
I've been cut so deep
but I can't make it bleed
I was caught
with my head in the sand
When the world came knocking
I feel the big beat the Rock Of Life
Big beat talk to me
Hey Whoo
I feel the back beat
the Rock Of Life
Waking up blind
with the house on fire
It ain't no perfect life
This one I'm living in
And I was caught
with my guard down
When the world came knocking
I feel the big beat
the Rock Of Life
Big beat talk to me
Hey Whoo
I feel the back beat
the Rock Of Life
Waking up blind
with the house on fire
I feel the big beat
the Rock Of Life
Big beat talk to me
Hey Whoo
I feel the back beat
the Rock Of Life
Waking up blind
with the house on fire
