Looking Forward Lyrics - Singles - Black Mary

I never cared about the car I'd drive 

Or the room I'd sleep or the bus I'd ride. 

Just as long as I could get somewhere 

And not get hurt I could breathe out there 

I knew I could be free out there...could be me 

I never cared about the word prestige 

About no inside track or no noblesse oblige 

Just as long as I could pay my way 

And pull my weight and say my say 

As long as I could pay my way... I could say 

(Bridge) 

I never had no plans just dreams and vague directions 

I would not make my stand 

in the house of corrections 

Now I can see at last that everything is changing 

And if you want to hold on fast the future needs arranging 

(Chorus) 

Now I'm looking forward to you 

Now I'm looking forward to you 

My former view was backward 

My backward view was blue 

Now I'm looking forward to you 

Love had a weight designed to bring me down 

My hands would sweat and my heart would pound 

Now I've learned it and I've turned around 

And I hanker for that anchor sound 

I hanker for that anchor sound 

Once designed to bring me down 

(Repeat Bridge) 

(Repeat Chorus)
