"Touch And Go" lyrics - EMERSON, LAKE & POWELL

EMERSON, LAKE & POWELL
"Touch And Go"
(Emerson, Gould, Lake)

Man in the street nowhere to sleep
No time for nothing, no Patek Phillipe
Pedal to the metal, blow by blow

[Refrain:]
You're running with the devil, it's touch and go

They're leaving you nothing and nowhere to go
Just put you in the corner like an old banjo
The strings are breaking, but you can't say no

[Refrain:]
You're running with the devil, it's touch and go

[Instrumental break]

Systematic one man show
You're caught up in the middle where the four winds blow
No salvation 20 below

[Refrain:]
You're running with the devil, it's touch and go

All systems go friend or foe
It's all depending on the dice you throw
Come without a warning like a U.F.O

[Refrain:]
You're running with the devil, it's touch and go

[Instrumental break]

You see this woman on a T.V. show
She's dripping in diamonds from head to toe
They make you believe it's the status quo

[Refrain:]
You're running with the devil, it's touch and go

All systems go friend or foe
It's all depending on the dice you throw
Come without a warning like a U.F.O

[Refrain:]
You're running with the devil, it's touch and go
