Testify or Say Goodbye - Black Star Riders

Vulnerability is a liability

There ain’t no plage for it in this life

The only guarantee is a dead certainty

That no one gets out of here alive

Animosity will never let you be

It will never let your soul relax

Feeling like a needle in an old jukebox

Your heart’s skipping all over the tracks

So let this great world spin around around around around

You gotta testify or say goodbye

Tell me no secrets, tell me no lies

Get up on the stand look me straight in the eye

You gotta testify or say goodbye

Time to make a proposition

Go tell all the opposition

You can’t keep a good man down

Everyone’s got their own solutions

To their private revolutions

Don’t let 'em run you out of town

No time to hesitate

Don’t make that same mistake

Stop dragging yourself around

Don’t you know that when you go

You can’t take it with you 'cause…

There ain’t no pockets in a shroud

So let this great world spin around around around around

You gotta testify or say goodbye

Tell me no secrets, tell me no lies

Get up on the stand look me straight in the eye

You gotta testify or say goodbye
