The Ballad Of El Goodo

Years ago, my heart was set to live, oh

And I've been trying hard against unbelievable odds

It gets so hard in times like now to hold on

But guns they wait to be stuck by, at my side is God

And there ain't no one going to turn me 'round

Ain't no one going to turn me 'round

There's people around who tell you that they know

And places where they send you, and it's easy to go

They'll zip you up and dress you down and stand you in a row

But you know you don't have to, you could just say no

And there ain't no one going to turn me 'round

Ain't no one going to turn me 'round

Ain't no one going to turn me 'round

Ain't no one going to turn me 'round

I've been built up and trusted

Broke down and busted

But they'll get theirs and we'll get ours if you can

Just-a hold on, hold on, hold on, hold on

Years ago, my heart was set to live, oh

Though I've been trying hard against strong odds

It gets so hard in times like now to hold on

Well, I'll fall if I don't fight, and at my side is God

And there ain't no one going to turn me 'round

Ain't no one going to turn me 'round

Ain't no one going to turn me 'round

Ain't no one going to turn me 'round

Hold on, hold on, hold on, hold on
