[Eric Burdon]

I've got that slipping feeling

When I know the lights go out

I know I should not do things,

But I really must work out

[Zoot and Burdon]

Really must work out

Really must work out

Really must work out



[Zoot Money]

Got that slipping feeling

I know the lights go out

Know I should not do things

Really must work out

[Burdon]

Really must work out

Really must work out

Really must work out





It's a chemical reaction

To state your piece of mind (ooo...)

God knows I'm dying,

But he

Can't keep up







With my mind





[Eric Burdon]

There are many people like me

On this manufactured train,

Trying to satisfy people

When you know they've got to win

[Zoot and Burdon]

Know they've got to win

Know they've got to win

Know they've got to win



[Zoot Money]

Many people like me

Manufactured train

Trying to satisfy people

Know they've got to win

[Burdon]

Know they've got to win

Know they've got to win

Know they've got to win





One can only hope

One day the sun will shine (ooo...)

God knows I'm dying,

But he

Can't keep up







With my mind





[Eric Burdon]

They told me I'd be dying

at the temple I was living,

but even when you're dying,

the search we join is giving giving giving giving...





[Eric Burdon]

Sometimes I sit and wonder,

"You know, what if we'll be wrong?"

While we sit here talking,

Only adding to the gloom

[Zoot and Burdon]

Adding to the gloom

Adding to the gloom

Adding to the gloom



[Zoot Money]

Sometimes I sit and wonder,

"What is in your room?"

While we sit here talking

Adding to the gloom

[Burdon]

Adding to the gloom

Adding to the gloom

Adding to the gloom





Then I see the wonder

As the sky bursts into flame (ooo...)

God knows I'm dying

God knows I'm dying

God knows I'm dying

And God knows I'm dying

God knows I'm dying

[repeat "God knows I'm dying" nine times]
