Not That Kind Of World

from Bam! Bam! Bam! by Chip Whitson

about

Stones like early R&B - little bit of blues harp driving it along.

lyrics

It’s so early in the morning when the clock beside me screams
It shatters all my peace, it rips me from my dreams
No time to drink my coffee, no time to kiss my girl
I wanna stay in bed and play guitar, but it’s not that kind of world

Spend most my waking hours making other people rich
They buy a better house and car and I’m stuck in the ditch
Thought I’d be somebody, but that dream has unfurled
Was gonna sing my songs for money, but it’s not that kind of world

Truth is life’s not really fair, it’s made for circles and you’re a square
It’s like running 50 miles on a hamster wheel, you haven’t moved and inch
And baby that’s the deal. That’s the deal


You know I wanna leave so bad, but I hide it from my face
When you’ve got so little money, well it keeps you in your place
You don’t’ wanna lose your children, you don’t wanna lose your girl
You keep wishing on a star, but it’s not that kinda world
