Corey Hart Chippin' Away
(VERSE SPOKEN) Are you ready? Thumbs are up. One, two, three, four. Hey mister take a load off let me explain I'm not hidin' from you carry the blame Have yourself a good look from the Saskatoon plain Nothing's that clear in life I swear by the claim I rack my conscience for the will to achieve I could lie, die, cry and to this day not receive Cause I'm not steady like Eddy I may not smile for awhile Got a little of the devil and a mean streak Cause I hope to one day be complete In the meantime, yes We're just chippin' away? Eh, got 'ole Michael Hehir playin' on guitar Sometimes we go for months Not talk at all No crumblin' wall here The journey's come too far 'O rocket spaceship Take us to the stars They're building castles Straight up to the sky But the Empire States Still looks to me like it's high (I'm not steady like Eddy I may not smile for awhile Got a little of the devil, and a mean streak) Cause I hope to one day be complete In the meantime, yes We're just chippin' away? O yea (I'm not steady like Eddy I may not smile for awhile) Got a little of the devil and a mean streak I hope to one day be complete, yea I'm not steady like Eddy, 'o no And I may not smile for awhile Got a little of the devil and a mean streak, yea I hope to one day be complete God I'm not steady like Eddy, 'o no I may not smile for awhile God bless the poor man, who knows what he seeks Cause I hope to one day be complete In the meantime, yes (yoa) We're just chippin' away O-o, (yoa) O-o O-o. "Ha, ha, I'm a bastard." (spoken)
