Instinct To Survive Lyrics - Dr. Feelgood

Some people talk, some people act 

They criticize, but don't react 

They wind you up, they put you down 

Hold your head up, with your feet on the ground 

[Chorus] 

If you want to keep yourself alive 

You'd better use all your instinct to survive 

Sometimes we laugh, sometimes we cry 

We get down low, we get up high 

We don't expect, no easy ride 

This water's muddy, this water's deep and it's wide 

[Chorus] 

Don't it sometimes feel like someone's telling you lies 

Winding you up with them false alibis 

No use you believing everything that people say 

You got to keep on moving, whatever comes your way 

Another day, another year 

Another good time, and one more tear 

We climb the mountain, we reach the top 

We keep on running, and we run til' we drop 

[Chorus x2]
