Piece Of The Action Sözleri

Somewhere a red-eyed waitress glances

At another movie magazine

Down on the corner there's a grocery boy

Stuffin' boxes fulla hungry dreams

Someone is cleanin' up the offices

One window burnin' in the dark

Somebody's cryin' is there any way in hell

To light a comet from a single spark

Workin' so hard I can't remember much

About the freedom I been workin' for

Felt like a prisoner 'til I looked in your eyes

And saw a million wide open door

Ya tell me put a little money away

Every dog'll have his day in time

Well I been slavin' like a dog and I got nothin' to show ya

But a collar and a fist fulla nickels and dimes

I want a piece

A piece a the action

Gimme a shot at the real thing

I want a piece a the action

A piece a the action

Gonna turn on the master

Gonna cut these strings

Been livin' just like my old man did

And neither one of us could get it right

Punchin' in when the day begins

And punchin' out the local boys at night

There's someone leavin' on a peelin' porch

And someone leavin' on a silver plane

I finally know the man I'd rather be

Girl I won't be back to getcha 'til they know my name

They hand you a paycheck every week

And steal a piece of your soul every day

Well I don't need no gold watch in fifty years

Baby let's be golden today

Somewhere a red-eyed waitress glances

At another movie magazine

Down on the corner there's a grocery boy

Stuffin' boxes fulla hungry dreams ...
