Lyrics Something For Nothing - The O'Jays

Something For Nothing

Waiting for the winds of change
To sweep the clouds away
Waiting for the rainbow’s end
To cast its gold your way
Countless ways, you pass the days
Waiting for someone to call
And turn your world around
Looking for an answer
To the question you have found
Looking for an open door
You don’t get something for nothing
You can’t have freedom for free
You won’t get wise with the sleep still in your eyes
No matter what your dream might be, oh Well, you don’t get something for nothing
You can’t have freedom for free
You won’t get wise with the sleep still in your eyes
Come on now, what your dream might be What you own is your own kingdom
What you do is your own glory
What you love is your own power
What you live is your own story
In your head is the answer
Let it guide you along
Let your heart be the anchor
And the beat of your song
Well, you don’t get something for nothing
You can’t have freedom for free, no Well, you don’t get something for nothing
You can’t have freedom for free
You won’t get wise with the sleep still in your eyes
No matter what your dreams might be
