Lyrics Johnny Rivers

Johnny Rivers

Outside Help

Flying through the universe upon a troubled star

Uncertainty is all around....we don't know who we are

Lately I been wondering if it's ever gonna come

Days are getting shorter and the changes have begun

Flower dreams and glitter scenes....we followed them so blind

Sunset shadows from a world we had to leave behind

Self-assured we knew it all, but had nothing to says

Things that we could do alone just don't work today

Gonna need outside help

You just can't make it by yourself

Gonna need outside help

You just can't make it by yourself

New Your talk....LA walk

Union dues....and blue suede shoes

Fords and hoards and missing chords

When is it all gonna stop

Turning to the east I hear a strange and fearful sound

The best laid plans of mice and men are crumbling to the ground

Turning to the sky I see a flashing ray of light

Brothers from a distant world are watching us tonight

Today I saw a little ant working to survive

Carrying ten times his weight just to stay alive

At times I feel just like that ant trying to make it through

But I know it'll be all right as long as I'm with you

Gonna need outside help

You just can't make it by yourself

Gonna need outside help

You can't make it by yourself
