Hot Boogie Chillun Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

same old story, babe
now same old game, but
listen to me now,
gonna to live my life my way
and don't you know,
I don't love you anymore,
I don't care where you go
but leave me alone

we said, we walk together
babe, now come what may,
but listen to me now
we're losing our way,
now don't you know,
well, I can't stand it no more
can you hear what I say
oh please go away

we've been moving too fast
and getting there too slow, you know
and when I'm looking at you
I can see your disguise in your eyes
I said now don't you know
well, I can't stand it no more
trapped inside too long
carried around like a stone
now can't you hear what I say,
I said we're losing our way

now I'm leaving
yes, I made up my mind
I'm leaving you and all
my troubles behind
now don't you know
I can't stand it no more
can't you hear what I say
we're losing our way





can't you hear what I say
we're losing our way
