Around the Block

Wonderful as it may seem

I've never been alone

I open wide and look closely

This is what I'm shown, yeah

I've got friends in this cold city

That won't pick up no slack

I've got friends on every street

That wanna stab my back

Oh, oh, oooh

I've been around the block, oh oh

So many times I forgot my address

So many times I don't know where I live

Terrible as it may be

Don't wanna leave this misery

I've got friends in the highest places

They all have their goals

I've got friends with two faces

But don't have one damn soul

I've been around this town, oh oh

I'm so high I will never come down

When I do, I hit the hard ground

I've been around the block, oh oh

So many times I forgot my address

So many times I don't know where I live

Never feel at home

No I don't

I know it's true

I'd leave if not for you

Nowhere else to go

I swear baby

No one's got no soul no more

No on'es got no soul no more

Oh, oh, ooooh

And I've been around this town, oh oh

I'm so high I will never come down

When I do, I hit the hard ground

I've been around the block, oh oh

So many times I forgot my address

So many times I don't know where I live
