Born Under Punches (The Heat Goes On) |
Congo |
Congo |
Congo |
Take a look at these hands |
Take a look at these hands |
The hand speaks |
The hand of a government man |
Well I’m a tumbler |
Born under punches |
All I want is to breathe |
Won’t you breathe with me? |
Find a little space so we move in-between |
And keep one step ahead of yourself |
Don’t you miss it, don’t you miss it |
Some 'a you people just about missed it |
Last time to make plans, I’m a tumbler |
I’m a government man |
Never seen anything like that before |
Falling bodies tumble across the floor, I’m a tumbler |
When you get to where you wanna be, thank you, thank you |
When you get to where you wanna be, don’t even mention it! |
Take a look at these hands, passin' in-between us |
Take a look at these hands |
Take a look at these hands, you don’t have to mention it |
No thanks, I’m a government man |
And the heat goes on, and the heat goes on |
And the heat goes on, and the heat goes on |
And the heat goes on, where the hand has been |
And the heat goes on, and the heat goes on |
I’m not a drowning man |
And I’m not a burning building |
I’m a tumbler |
Drowning cannot hurt a man |
Fire cannot hurt a man |
Not the government man |
