David Coverdale - Breakdown

Getting near the end, now I knew the time was right for a breakdown Megaton surprise but your eyes never made it a shakedown Shot you full of rock and roll, couldn't make your soul Didn't burn you to the bone Do what the man says Take the money and run But, I never saw the splendor In stealing all your gold Taking all your silver And doing what I'm told I never saw the tears but I knew you cried for rhythm and blues Screaming like a wildcat I knew that I had nothing to lose Shot you full of rock and roll, couldn't make your soul Didn't burn you to the bone Do what the man says Take the money and run But, I never saw the splendor In stealing all your gold Taking all your silver And doing what I'm told It's just a breakdown Breakdown Breakdown Breakdown Oh, look out Shaking like a leaf in the wind see me blowing away Never see me fall on the ground till I've had my say Shot you full of rock and roll, couldn't make your soul Didn't burn you to the bone Do what the man says Take the money and run But, I never saw the splendor In stealing all your gold Taking all your silver And doing what I'm told It's just a breakdown Breakdown Breakdown It's just a breakdown Oh, look out [Incomprehensible] Getting near the end, now I knew the time was right for a breakdown Megaton surprise but your eyes never made it a shakedown Shot you full of rock and roll, couldn't make your soul Didn't burn you to the bone Do what the man says Take the money and run But, I never saw the splendor In stealing all your gold Taking all your silver And doing what I'm told It's just a breakdown Breakdown Breakdown Breakdown Oh, look out
