DEEP PURPLE - No One Came lyrics

rate me

Maybe it's because I'm only starting<br>That I think it won't take too long<br>Maybe it's because I can see you laughing<br>That I think you've got it wrong<br>Maybe I could be like robin hood<br>Like and outlaw dressed all in green<br>Someone said what's he gonna turn out like<br>And someone else said never mind<br>Well I was big and bold and more than twice as old<br>As all the cats I'd ever seen<br>I grew my hair and bought a suit<br>Of shiny white or was it cream<br>I shook and shivered danced and quivered<br>And stood on a mountain top<br>No one came from miles around and said<br>Man your music is really hot<br><br>Well I knew what they meant because I was a freak<br>My throat was tired and worn<br>My pretty face just looked out of place<br>As they poured on the scorn<br>I wrote on yellow paper from a man who was the king<br>He said my boy we'll have some crazy scenes<br>There weren't any scenes at all like he was talkin' about<br>He must've been the king of queens<br>Well I could write a million songs about the things I've done<br>But I could never sing them so they'd never get sung<br>There's a law for the rich and one for the poor<br>And there's another one for singers<br><br>It's die young and live much longer<br>Spend your money and sit and wonder<br>No one came for miles around<br>And said man your music is really funky<br><br>I believe that I must tell the truth<br>And say things as they really are<br>But if I told the truth and nothing but the truth<br>Could I ever be a star<br>Nobody knows who's real and who's fakin'<br>Everyone's shouting out loud<br>It's only the glitter and shine that gets through<br>Where's my robin hood outfit<br>Well I've come and I've gone before you wink an eye<br>No one ever cared enought to say goodbye<br>The money's good and the time you have<br>Fun and games galore<br>But you spend your money and lie in bed forgotten<br>And you wonder what you did it for<br>No one came from miles around<br>And said man who's he?
