Long List Of Troubles

Just like cold steel shot hot out of a gun Just like a orange peel left all day in the sun I've got no feel that's done left me scarred What don't kill me has done made me hard Whoa Whoa Just like storms feel when you've got no place to run Just like love feels when you thought she was the one From the school of hard-knocks Trapped between a rock and a hard place What don't kill me has done made me hard I've learned to breathe underwater And lay fire to bed I'm just a man under pressure Like Muddy Waters said Disappointment can drop me From a thousand stories high I got a spare set of wings Watch me fly, oh Just like storms feel when you've no place to run Just like love feels when you thought she was the one The school of hard-knocks Right between a rock and a hard place What don't kill me has done made me hard, ooh I've learned to breathe underwater And lay fire to bed I'm just a man under pressure Like Muddy Waters said Disappointment can drop me From a thousand stories high I've got a spare pair of wings, oh Watch me fly, oh Yeah Yeah Yeah Woo Taxes are due And I'm through with you I've been lonely a long time I'm hungry now And I was hungry then I've gotta know them I've got a notice just the other day, mm-hmm They said that I'm underwater I'm underwater --- Long List of Troubles - Gregory Porter
