Between A Rock And A Hard Place lyrics

between a rock
between a rock and a hard place

there`s a beating heart
watching the lights go down on my world
stoney faced
letting the rope slip though my fingers
ain`t nothin` straight, always a riddle
caught up in the middle of the party line
i got a brick but i can`t find a window
take me to your shelter...

between a rock
between a rock and a hard place (you better lay your money down)
you`ll never stop
what you started in the first place
between a rock
you gotta roll with the punches baby
between a rock and a hard place...

there`s so many words
you place your bet you take your chances
the dealer pays
but he`ll never let you leave the table
they`re gonna take you lock, stock and barrel
down to the knuckle, down on your luck
and when they`ve stripped you of all resistance
you can take you place...

between a rock
between a rock and a hard place (you gotta lay your money down)
you`ll never stop
what you started in the first place
between a rock
you gotta roll with the punches baby
between a rock and a hard place...

it`ll take all your money

we think we like it here
between a rock (you gotta roll with the punches baby)
between a rock and a hard place
