Keep Yourself Alive (Remastered 2018 / Live At The Rainbow, London / March 1974)

Tell you what

It's time you all enjoy it

Everybody

It's call, "Keep yourself alive"

Yeah, right

Keep yourself alive

Get up

Yeah

I was told a million times of all the troubles in my way

Might you grow a little wiser, little better every day

But if I crossed a million rivers, and I rode a million miles

Still be where I started, bread and butter for a smile

Sold a million mirrors in a shopping alley way

But I never saw my face in any window any day

Now they say your folks are telling you, "Be a superstar"

Tell you just be satisfied, stay right where you are

Keep yourself alive

Keep yourself alive

All you people

Keep yourself alive

That's right

That's right

Whoo!

Well, I loved a million women in a belladonic haze

And I ate a million dinners brought to me on silver trays

Give me everything I need, feed my body and my soul

Grow a little bigger, maybe that can be my goal

Told a million times of all the people in my way

How I had to keep on trying and get better every day

But if I crossed a million rivers, rode a million miles

Still be where I started, same as when I started

Keep yourself alive

Keep yourself alive

All you people

Keep yourself alive

Keep yourself alive

Keep yourself alive

Take you on your time and honey

Honey, you survive

Do you think you're better every day?

No, I just think I'm two steps nearer to my grave

Keep yourself alive

Keep yourself alive

All you people

Keep yourself alive

Keep yourself alive

Keep yourself alive

All you people

Keep yourself alive

Keep yourself alive (come on, come on)

Keep yourself alive

All you people

Keep yourself alive
