featuring Mark Walker on drums and Gene Williams on guitar
lyrics
Why do you keep writing songs that do not sell?
Gated community and Jezebel.?
Have you ever made enough to buy yourself a meal?
"I cannot help it I'm just playin what I feel."
(Chorus)
Don't want to be a jukebox- playing all the hits.
If you want a jukebox you ought to pay for it.
I may be misguided but my aim is real-
I keep on playing what I feel.
Why don't you cut your hair?- Your look is out of date..
The things you sing about no one can relate.
"Your say I'm out of fashion but you just can't see.
I'm just waiting for you to follow me."
(Chorus)
You know I keep on running .
That is what I said.
The rats they keep on running and they're coming out ahead.
I don't have a gimmick and I look like hell.
Why I keep doing this nobody can tell.
(Chorus)
