Own Way

The Lyrics of Terry Hubbard

Own Way

Everybody wants to have their own way, even when they’re singin’ bout love.

You got to celebrate everybody’s birthday, or get buried in the push and shove.

Getting’ so tired I just can’t say, I think I’ve ‘bout heard enough.

Oh, I think I heard enough.

There’s a fire, and there’s a light, there’s flesh and there is bone.

There are those who will not fight, and those who would cast the first stone.

Some few may still know what’s right, why must they remain unknown?

Oh why must they remain unknown?

There’s a wonder that you can see everyday in TV land.

An insubstantial fantasy, like air grasped firmly in hand.

But that’s no way to run reality, I think it’s time to take a stand.

Oh, I think it’s time to take a stand.

Why would I want to waste my time tellin’ you what you already know?

Who’s the criminal and where’s the crime? The evidence will clearly show.

And who could know the cost of makin’ this rhyme, even if I told ‘em so.

Oh, even if I told ‘em so.

Everybody wants to have their own way, even when they’re singin’ bout love.

You got to celebrate everybody’s birthday, or get buried in the push and shove.

Getting’ so tired I just can’t say, I think I’ve ‘bout heard enough.

Oh, I think I heard enough.
