MEAT LOAF - Wolf At Your Door lyrics

rate me

Two a.m. with the lost and the lonely<br>Walkin' past the kids, comin' back from the party<br>Smiles on their faces, you remember so well how it was<br>Nights in the back of that buick that you got runnin'<br>Your baby by your side, told the whole world you're comin'<br><br>Chorus:<br><br>Work so hard to do what is right<br>Believed in what you're doin',<br>But so many fights<br>Trusted too many, believed too much,<br>Workin' your life to the bone<br><br>There's a wolf at your door,<br>He wants your money, wants your soul<br>A wolf at your door, you give it all, he wants more<br>There's a wolf at your door,<br>He says he's playin' for keeps<br>Breathin' down your neck, boy<br>It's sure hard to sleep<br><br>With a wolf at your door<br><br>They'll take it away, when you're not lookin'<br>Look you in the eyes, tell you how good they're doin'<br>Smiles on their faces, are lies to keep you from knowin'<br>You're not guilty, you are the victim,<br>But you still pay for the crime<br>Don't look for trouble, it'll always find you in time<br><br>Work so hard to do what is right<br>Believed in what you're doin',<br>But so many fights<br>Trusted too many, relieved too much,<br>Workin' your life to the bone<br><br>There's a wolf at your door,<br>He says he's playin' for keeps<br>Breathin' down your neck, boy<br>It's sure hard to sleep<br><br>With a wolf at your door<br><br>It won't be broken, I'll fight 'til I drop,<br>Blood burnin' hot in my veins<br><br>But they won't be satisfied until they take everything<br><br>(chorus repeats out...)
