Well there's a preacher on the corner Calling out my name Tellin' me to change some thing Or some things are going to change. Well one of these days , it won't be long He's going to have to call it quits I'm going to wave a little something in his face and show him just where I live I ain't ever given in I ain't ever given in I ain't ever given in Anytime soon Well I got me a girl in San Francisco And she knows everything
She likes to go down to the j**ellery store And try on the diamond rings She thinks there's going to be a day When I'm going to lose my will And when I do, well you-know-who is going to move in for the k** I ain't ever given in I ain't ever given in I ain't ever given in Anytime soon Bright lights in the middle of the night The rabbits on the run Well they're going to do me They'll have to do better than they done
