Rock Of Life Lyrics - Rock Of Life - Rick Springfield

Well i pick up my guitar 

(to look) 

i look in the mirror 

it's like a stranger in my hand 

(baby is cryin') 

there comes a time when a boy must leave 

(get up) 

and the man has to enter 

for the soul to understand 

(all of the changes) 

As if it ain't hard enough 

this life i'm livin' in 

i was caught with my guard down 

when the world came knockin' 

I feel a big beat 

the rock of life 

big beat talk to me 

hey 

whooh 

i feel a back beat 

the rock of life 

wakin' up blind with the house on fire 

Is it somethin' in my head 

(look up) 

or the time or the season 

or the little boy in my head 

(must be a reason) 

there's new meaning in my life 

(shake up) 

but there's pain and confusion 

and i'm tryin' to understand 

(all of the changes) 

I've been cut so deep but 

i can't make it bleed 

i was caught with my head in the sand 

when the world came knockin' 

I feel a big beat 

the rock of life 

big beat talk to me 

hey 

whooh 

i feel a back beat 

the rock of life 

wakin' up blind with the house on fire 

It ain't no perfect life 

(by far) 

this world i'm livin' in 

but i was caught with my guard down 

when the world came knockin' 

I feel a big beat 

the rock of life 

big beat talk to me 

hey 

whooh 

i feel a back beat 

the rock of life 

wakin' up blind with the house on fire 

I feel a big beat 

the rock of life 

big beat talk to me 

hey 

whooh 

i feel a back beat 

the rock of life 

wakin' up blind with the house on fire
