Round and Round

Lyrics

[Verse 1] Some folks living in the country can't wait To get in their pick-up trucks and go to town There's people living in a penthouse Dying to get out in the sticks and ride around There's a man above the mountaintop Wants to go down breath the salt air by the shore There's a guy on an island, he ain't smiling Don't want to be on an island anymore [Verse 2] There's a lady locked in a love affair Wouldn't care if she was single again There's a lonely soul whose only goal Is to get that golden ring upon their hand In the middle of nowhere where there's nobody Trying to get that fifteen minutes of fame Someplace there's a superstar Thinking, "Lord, if I could only change my name" [Chorus] Round and round and round and round we go Why we can't be satisfied, I don't know I don't know [Verse 3] There's a young man wishing he could grab the hands of time And speed them up a year or two There's an old man wishing he could just go back And stop the clock and hang on to his youth There's a stoner on the sidewalk Wishing he could just get straight for a day There's a man in a suit and tie Thinking getting high might be a better way [Chorus] Round and round and round and round we go Why we can't be satisfied, I don't know From the day we're born, it seems like it never stops Why are we always wanting something we ain't got? Oh, we ain't got [Chorus] Round and round and round and round we go Why we can't be satisfied, I don't know 'Til the day we die, it seems like it never stops Why are we always wanting something we ain't got? Oh, we have not got [Outro] Round and round and round and round we go
