Peter Green Splinter Group - Real World lyrics

I like to think I could make a lot of money Then I could give it all away But there's a price for the new generation They make you pay it every day You know we're living in the real world Sometimes I know I can't wait any longer So I try to do as much as I can But there are times when I look in the mirror I expect to see a younger man We are living in the real world Living with the lost and lonely We are living in the real world And we can't get out I look around me for the best situation But everything seems the same If I buy a ticket for the wrong destination I've only got myself to blame I'm living in the real world We keep working for a good reputation Maybe we'll get the chance to do it all We take the blues from the Mississippi delta And play it in the Free Trade Hall We are living in the real world Living with the lost and lonely We are living in the real world And we can't get out There are people on an indian reservation Waiting for a telephone call They think a man from the Union of Congress Will give them back their land, their gold? They're living in a dream world
