Rise up and Fall Down

Rise up and Fall Down

Rise up and shine
Ain't life divine
Fall down and down
Pick up your crown

Rise up at dawn and fight another day
Fall down at dusk
And drown the sorrows of the day 

There's no place I'm going
Nowhere I'm headed 
Just a black cloud
Floating on another stormy day

Got these old town Blues
Head spinning like a Dervish
If I could just have one wish
I'd float on high and look out on a different  view

Its hard to get up and fight
When you know you've lost the fight
Do you want to be like the cattle 
Marching right on into battle

Maybe time to check out 
Look in from pastures new
Have a new world in a different galaxy 
And rise up to a whole new view.
