Steppenwolf - Every Man for Himself lyrics
Words and music by John Kay Say the word and I'll turn you loose I got mine now you get yours Just like you I've got my price Sure is nice that someone paid I've got my ticket out of here But for you, I fear, it's much too late It's nothing you can blame me for In love and war It's every man for himself All night long same old song Play the game, come on strong You're afraid to show your hand You're not sure she'll understand Your play And when you finally leave alone Do you think that when you're gone she'll say "It's nothing I can blame him for In love and war It's every man for himself" Tell me how it feels to cheat a friend Can you lie and steal and feel no pain? One dishonest dollar would burn my hand How can you laugh about it? I can't understand From womb to tomb it's nip and tuck Run your race and chase the buck And it's dog eat dog down on the street It's cat and mouse in the penthouse suite Sanity is at a premium Vanity just always seems to win But oh, the prize looks so inviting Shake hands and let the fight begin It's nothing you can blame us for In love and war It's every man for himself 1981 Rambunctious Music (ASCAP) |
