Get It off My Back

Well, it's early in the morning I lie awake and watch you sleep There is no time for mourning Or no gentle weep There's only getting up And let the day unfold There's only rising up And let the story be told But I hope in my next life I'll get rid of the rack And I hope in my next life I'll get it off my back Get it off my back Get it off my back Get it off my back Well, now baby, there's no leaving There is no taking care It's yourself you're deceiving In the end, there's nothing you can bear There's only getting up And let the day unfold There's only rising up Let the story be told But I hope in my next life I'll get rid of the rack But I hope in my next life I'll get it off my back Get it off my back Get it off my back Get it off my back Baby, time is a hell of a bitch And losing time, there's no way you can stitch the wounds Well, it's late in the evening It's quiet as hell There is no people shouting No ringing on a doorbell Just sitting in front of a fire slowly burning out There's no people singing, no music up loud On this road, there is no round All because of you baby I am proud There's only getting up And let the day unfold There's only rising up Let the story be told There's only getting up And let the day unfold There's only rising up Let the story be told But I hope in my next life I'll get rid of the rack And I hope in my next life I'll get it off my back Get it off my back (yeah, will get it off) Get it off my back Get it off my back (will I get it off?) Get it off my back Get it off my back Get it off my back Get it off my back
