Addictedtoclassic 1 Report post Posted April 8, 2005 Since I'll be gone until next Thursday, here's next week's lyrics for you to ponder. "Stop Lookin' Back" - Grand Funk Railroad Stuck in the county jail Nobody here gonna' pay my bail Thirty days with a smelly drunk A turn-key callin' me a dirty punk I got to pick myself up, and stop lookin' back And I've got to move straight ahead, stop lookin' back Shoot for the stars when my eyes can't see the starlight Reach for the sun in the night Stop lookin' back at the times I was defeated I pick myself up, I move straight ahead, I stop lookin' back Stranded! Nothing worse I'm livin' on coffee, I got an empty purse I'm dreamin' 'bout blue eyes lookin' my way Hopin' my dreams don't blow away I got to pick myself up, and stop lookin' back And I've got to move straight ahead, stop lookin' back Shoot for the stars when my eyes can't see the starlight Reach for the sun in the night Stop lookin' back at the times I was defeated I pick myself up, I move straight ahead, I stop lookin' back Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Addictedtoclassic 1 Report post Posted April 8, 2005 My favorite Grand Funk song. The lyrics are so wonderful, it's the greatest "never look back on your past" song. I've always lived by the concept of "learn from your past but never look back upon it". It's a great song to listen to when something bad has happened and you need a pick-me-up to get your head straight again. When things get bad, always remember that you can make them good again by not living in the past. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
