Monday mornin' runs to Sunday night A scream slow me down before the new year dies Won't take much to kill a lovin' smile And every mother with a baby cryin' in her arms, singin' Give me help, give me strength Give a soul a night of fearless sleep Give me love, give me peace Don't you know these days you pay for everything Got high hopes I got high hopes I got high hopes I got high hopes
Yeah comin' from the city, comin' from the wild I see a breathless army breakin' like a cloud They're gonna smother love, they're gonna shoot your hopes Before the meek inherit they'll learn to hate themselves Give me help, give me strength Give a soul a night of fearless sleep Give me love, give me peace Don't you know these days you pay for everything Got high hopes I got high hopes I got high hopes Yeah, I got high hopes Roy! Got high hopes Yeah, I got high hopes I got high hopes I got high hopes
Yeah so tell me someone now, what's the price I wanna buy some time and maybe live my life I wanna have a wife, I wanna have some kids I wanna look in their eyes and know they'll stand a chance
Give me help, give me strength Give a soul a night of fearless sleep Give me love, give me peace Don't you know these days you pay for everything High hopes Got high hopes I got high hopes Yeah, I got high hopes Break! High hopes I got high hopes Yeah, I got high hopes I got high hopes Yiiii, (I got) high hopes Yeah, high hopes Whoa, high hopes High hopes Yeah, well, I got high hopes Yiiii, got high hopes Yeah, high hopes Yeah, (I got) high hopes Yeah, high hopes Yeah, I got high hopes High hopes
