Well, i left home when i was 16 I had no reason, had no rhyme I did not know where i was going It did not matter at that time And there were people on the street, people on the street The strangest people that you'd ever meet There were people on the street, people on the street The strangest people that you'd ever meet I got a job in the factory I broke my back, i swept the floor I met a girl who said she loved me I hadn't heard those words before And all i knew was love and music Love and music got me by And all i need is love and music Love and music 'till i die All i need is love and music Love and music gets me by All i need is love and music Love and music 'till i die
