lyrics

1. You've had too much freedom, You can't be fenced in
To the world your naked, Crawlin' out of your skin
It's a sin to hold high and a shame to give in
The future's brighter, but the outcome is grim

2. Is this your idea of lonely, gettin lost in the crowd
You're whispering softly, cause you've been talkin' too loud
You live for the moment baby that's been you're plan
Stood tall and stony, when the time came you ran

Ch. You've got to take steps,
If you want to get started,
You've gotta take steps,
If you wanna get started,
You've gotta take steps, steps, steps, steps, steps
If you wanna get started,
If you wanna get started

3. In the land of indecision, slippin' through the seams,
Too many new direction, too many dreams,
Drowning in ideas, but you don't have the means,
Too much rice, and not enough beans

Ch.

4. You may stall, or you may stumble
You might fall, or even fumble,
You say you don't mean to be so fatalistic,
But you can't help feeling like somehow you missed it

Ch.

Ted Hefko and The Thousandaires New Orleans, Louisiana

Ted’s songs explore hope and hustlers, saints and strays, drifters and the down-and-out. The band brings these stories to life with the spontaneity of jazz, and the rough-hewn, bare-bones tone of backwoods rhythm and bllues. ... more
