Bill Beare - One Way Street Lyrics

It's a one way street; it's been a long way down
You're out on your feet; you're so worn out
You were at your peak with no way down
Now it's a one way street out of town

What an adventure God sentcha
Loans and debentures, golden ventures
Money was nothing, luxury gushing
But what about something missing, one thing
Momma had told you, if there's no one to hold you
Come home, just come home

Where there's food on the table, warm love, willing and able
To rock you in the cradle when you're lost an alone
Fragile and frail, no wind in your sails
When you've lost and you've failed
Come home, just come home

Dig it in, dig it out; that's what a win's all about
Stand still, get caught out
Stand up stand out,
Don't give 'em a chance, don't give up your stance
Have a good day, going up all the way
Be cool in the climb, it's a rule, it's a rhyme
Leave 'em all behind, be cruel to be kind
Make hay, don't stop, all the way to the top
Keep moving, keep dancing, keep going

That's what it was, just because
Always the boss, always winning the toss
And the ball kept rolling, rolling along
A friendly face, a fool in the race
The pressure, the pace to play the ace
All a bit of a waste, a bitter aftertaste
Kept going, kept going, going, gone

It's a knock on the door, I've been here before
Time to take off your shoes, shoot the breeze, sing the blues
It was spicy and sweet but too hot to hold
Come in, warm your feetand turn off your phone
Sign in, sign out, sayonara, you're home
