Ballad Of El Goodo - Matthew Sweet

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 goin' to turn me 'round

Ain’t no one goin' 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 can just say no

I’ve been built up and trusted, broke down and busted

But they’ll get theirs and we will get ours if you can

just hold on, hold on, hold on, hold on Years ago my heart was set to live, oh but I’ve been trying hard against strong odds

It gets so hard at times like now to hold on Well, I’ll fall if I don’t fight, and at my side is God
