Tina Turner - One of the Living Lyrics

In the desert sun
Every step that you take could be the final one
In the burning heat
Hanging on the edge of destruction, oh
You can't stop the pain of your children crying out in your head
Oh, they always said that the living would envy the dead

So now you're gonna shoot (shoot) bullets of fire
Don't wanna fight but sometimes you've got to
You're some soul survivor
There's just one thing you've got to know
You got ten more thousand miles to go

Because you're one of the living
And if we can't stick together (can't stick together)
Oh, you're one of the living
Who's gonna make it tonight?
Yeah, yeah, yeah, ooh

Yeah, ooh

Oh, walk tall
Cool, collected, but savage
Mmh, walk tall
Bruised, sensual, ravaged
Mmh, it's every man for himself, every woman, every child
A new breed, ferocious and wild

And all they wanna do is shoot bullets of fire
They wanna fight and sometimes you've got to
You're some soul survivor
There's just one thing you've got to know
You got ten more thousand years to go

Because you're one of the living
And if we can't stick together (can't stick together)
Oh, you're one of the living
Who's gonna make it tonight?

Shoot bullets of fire
They wanna fight and sometimes you got to
You're some soul survivor
There's just one thing you've got to know
You got ten more thousand years to go

You're one of the living
And you can't stick together (you can't stick together)
Oh, you're one of the living
Who's gonna make it tonight?
Who's gonna make it, oh, ohh (yeah, yeah, yeah, ooh)

you're one of the living
And you can't stick together (you can't stick together)
Oh, you're one of the living
Who's gonna make it tonight?
Yeah, yeah, yeah, ooh

One of the living
And you can't stick together
