People all around me Everywhere I go I thought I had a grip on things Now I just don’t know People turn their backs on me My feet are movin’ slow I done time, I been shined Ain’t gonna fight no more I’m gonna make it I’m gonna try Ain’t no use to sit and cry Turn it loose; don’t hold back Got to set your spirit free Turn it loose; listen to me, children It’s the best kind of remedy Turn it loose; you got the power That’s the way it’s got to be Turn it loose; get on board It’s just for people like you and me
Some friends, they hide it Keep it deep inside For the boy it’s a struggle Don’t you know it’s a lie You got to be the real thing It flows with the tide You are the person With the answer inside I’m gonna make it I’m gonna try Ain’t no use to hang your head and cry
Turn it loose; don’t hold back Got to set your spirit free Turn it loose; listen to me, children It’s the best kind of remedy Turn it loose; you got the power That’s the way it’s got to be Turn it loose; get on board It’s just for people like you and me
