Hey baby it's a mean old world

Gotta keep your feet on the ground

Gotta have a heart like Jesus

When the devil come an' knock you down

Trust what's inside you

And heads up for the wrecking ball

Hey baby it's a backseat ride

Nothing but your hope at the wheel

So you want to be a true believer

You can't pretend what your soul don't feel

Good luck will guide you

And heads up for the wrecking ball

High on a shelf inside myself I go

One day we'll all fly home

Hey baby it's a mean old world

Gotta keep your feet on the ground

You gotta have a heart like Jesus

When the devil come an' knock you down

Trust what's inside you

And heads up for the wrecking ball

Heads up for the wrecking ball

Heads up for the wrecking ball

Heads up heads up

Heads up for the wrecking ball
