David Coverdale - BreakdownLyrics

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 `n` 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 `n` blues Screaming like a wildcat I knew that I had nothing to lose Shot you full of rock `n` 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 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 `n` 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 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 `n` 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
