Get Too Far Songtext
von Steve Walsh

Crazy thing about the current situation
People read of bankers stealing with the runaway inflation
And all the union men are striking, you can hear their bosses holler
Oh well, you get your ten and twenty
But your work ain′t worth a dollar

Can you hear them groan?
Hear them bitch and moan?
See them near and far
No matter who they are
They'll never get too far
Never get too far
Never get there
No, no

I had a fight with my old lady, she say violence is improper
Well, she told me she was leaving, there was no way I could stop her
Now I don′t got nobody to do my wash and do my cooking
Well, I'm a hardworking man, I ain't got time to be good-looking


Hey, well, what′s the entry fee
In this high society?
What you gonna do
When it all depends on you?
Good luck, baby

Well, I′m training for the war, I can see the wars a-coming
Well, I don't know if I′ll be caught but I know I won't be running
And all the leaders of the nation will be on the phone a-crying
But they don′t know me when I'm fighting
They won′t help me when I'm dying

Can you hear them groan?
Hear them bitch and moan?
No matter who they are
They'll never get too far, no
Can you hear them groan?
Hear them bitch and moan?
No matter who they are
They′ll never get too far


Get too far
Won′t get too far
Get too far
No, no, no
No, get too far
Whoa, whoa, whoa, oh, whoa
Whoa, oh, whoa, oh, whoa
I can see the war a-coming but I know I won't be running
′Cause I'll never get too far
All the union men are crying, they′ll be cheating, they'll be lying
But they′ll never get too far
All the leaders of the nation turned their back on this inflation
But they'll never get too far
Whoa, whoa, whoa, oh, whoa
Whoa, oh, whoa, oh, whoa
