Steppenwolf Best Of What You Got
Up at dawn, on your feet, fall into line
Life is short, get on with it, stop wastin' time
Thriving on adversity's a tough row to hoe
But may as well face the fact that you got to go
Ain't no use in sighin', make the best of what you got
Ain't no use denyin' make the best of what you got
Got to keep on tryin' so here we go, ready or not.
Don't be fooled by fashion, double talk or double speak
Don't loose your compassion, it's wearing thin
We need it now, for it's sink or swim.
Dues are non-deductable, you got to pay
But dreams are indestructible and won't fade away
So make your move, make your mark, don't wait your turn
Get a life, then give a little back to the world
Ain't no use in sighin' make the best of what you got
Ain't no use denyin' make the best of what you got
Got to keep on tryin' so here we go, ready or not.
Don't be silent, agitate, yes, rock the boat
Speak your mind, say your peace, go cast your vote
When you see wrong don't look away, go do what's right
Never take it lying down, stand up and fight
Got to keep on tryin' 'n make the best of what we got
Ain't no use in sighin' make the best of what we got
Ain't no use denyin' the time is now, ready or not.
Don't be silent, agitate, make the best of what you got
Don't be silent, agitate, make the best of what you got
