Lift 'em On Up Lyrics - Wide Awake In Dreamland - Pat Benatar

Lately I been wastin' this hard, hard life 

Seems like nothin' ever turns out right 

The day's too short, the nights too long 

Meet you in the middle if it turns out wrong 

Johnny got a job but it ain't no good 

Nickels and dimes you know he never could 

Seem to make it clean, I'm tellin' you 

When the devil got your soul 

There ain't much you can do 

 

Now he prays for a light in the dark 

To Lift 'Em On Up (Lift 'Em On Up) 

An' he swears with his hand on his heart 

To Lift 'Em On Up (Lift 'Em On Up) 

You can tear the night down 

And turn it inside out

Johnny looks around but all he sees 

Is a tired old city livin' on its knees 

Blue jean faces, fadin' fast 

Backs are breaking but the hard times last 

 

Now he prays for a light in the dark 

To Lift 'Em On Up (Lift 'Em On Up) 

An' he swears with his hand on his heart 

To Lift 'Em On Up (Lift 'Em On Up) 

You can tear the night down 

And turn it inside out 

You can tear the night down 

 

Yesterdays... Johnny (Johnny, Johnny) 

 

Johnny and me used to have a dream 

If ya ran real fast, it'd set you free 

So we kept on running, but our legs got tired 

And the dream just kinda faded when the spirit died - Hey

To Lift 'Em On Up, Lift 'Em On Up 

Now he prays for a light in the dark 

To Lift 'Em On Up (Lift 'Em On Up) 

An' he swears with his hand on his heart 

To Lift 'Em On Up (Lift 'Em On Up) 

You can tear the night down, you can tear the night down 

You can tear the night down and turn it inside out 

 

To Lift 'Em On Up, Lift 'Em On Up, Lift 'Em On Up, Lift 'Em On Up
