Steve Everett - Backbeat lyrics

Artist: Steve Everett

album: Reciprocity


I screamed myself to sleep last night
Couldn't clear my busy mind
Of the chase for things I never get from life
I'm gettin better everyday
But a dollar's gettin hard to make
For a man that stands for anything at all
Don't lie to make it better
Don't try to tell me things are fine
I just need a little backbeat
Don't even need to hear a song
I can walk and whistle, tap my feet or sing along
I don't need doctor, there ain't a thing for what I got
I just need a little backbeat
I just need a little beat to get back up
Love and life are never fair
They push and pull you 'til you tear
And burn the pieces that you rip into
A little spark is all it takes
And you'll gladly give yourself away
To a cause or to a girl you barely know
And after all those choices
That led me to dead ends
They're only dead if you get to scared
To start back up again
I just need a little backbeat
Don't even need to hear a song
I can walk and whistle, tap my feet or sing along
I don't need doctor, there ain't a thing for what I got
I just need a little backbeat
I just need a little beat to get back up
