Weight of the World

歌詞

Maybe your daddy never held you like you should Maybe your mama just held on the best she could Ev'ry soul has a secret Give it away or keep it But yesterday's gone so tell me why You carry the weight the weight of the world It's breakin' you down on your back like a boulder Before it's too late get rid of it girl Get it off of your shoulder I know you've been used But you gotta lose the weight of the world Maybe I haven't always been there just for you Maybe I try but then I got my own life too Ev'ry heart has a hunger I'm not getting any younger I got all the crosses I can bear Don't gimme the weight the weight of the world It's breakin' me down on my back like a boulder Before it's too late get rid of it girl Get it off of my shoulder You know I've been used And I gotta lose the weight of the world It all comes down to who you crucify You either kiss the future or the past goodbye We could fly so high But we carry the weight the weight of the world It's breakin' us down on our backs like a boulder Before it's too late get rid of it, girl Get it off of our shoulders We've all been used And we gotta lose the weight of the world It's takin' us down and the night's growin' colder Just blame it on fate that was yesterday girl And we're just growin' older We've all been used Now it's time to lose the weight of the world The weight of the world The weight of the world
