| I’ve been losing sleep, just noddin'
|
| Sleep that I wish that I’d known
|
| And I lost all my tapes of back masking
|
| Peace just for asking, peace that I ought to be owed
|
| And that’s the rent I pay
|
| Just like my brother would say it
|
| Out amongst the stars and the stones
|
| Every kinda fortune gets old
|
| Every kinda line is gonna come back to me just as I go
|
| And that’s the rent I pay (Yeah)
|
| Like my brother say it
|
| That’s the rent I pay
|
| Rent I pay
|
| Like my brother say it
|
| That’s the rent I pay
|
| Ooh la, ooh la, ooh la, ooh la, ooh la, ooh la, ooh la, ooh la
|
| I’ve been losing sleep, and I’m nodding
|

|
| Peace just for asking, peace that I ought to be owed
|
| And that’s the rent I pay
|
| Like my brother say it
|
| That’s the rent I pay
|
| Rent I pay
|
| Like my brother say
|
| That’s the rent I pay
|
| Everybody knows just where you been going
|
| Everybody knows the faces you been showin'
|
| And if that’s your answer, no, I ain’t your dancer
