between a rock and a hard place
watching the lights go down on my world
letting the rope slip though my fingers
ain't nothin' straight, always a riddle
caught up in the middle of the party line
i got a brick but i can't find a window
take me to your shelter...
between a rock and a hard place (you better lay your money down)
what you started in the first place
you gotta roll with the punches baby
between a rock and a hard place...
you place your bet you take your chances
but he'll never let you leave the table
they're gonna take you lock, stock and barrel
down to the knuckle, down on your luck
and when they've stripped you of all resistance
you can take you place...
between a rock and a hard place (you gotta lay your money down)
what you started in the first place
you gotta roll with the punches baby
between a rock and a hard place...
it'll take all your money
between a rock (you gotta roll with the punches baby)
between a rock and a hard place
