Between a rock Between a rock and a hard place There's a beating heart Watching the lights go down on my world Stoney faced Letting the rope slip though my fingers Ain't nothin' straight, always a riddle Caught up in the middle of the party line I got a brick but i can't find a window Take me to your shelter... Between a rock Between a rock and a hard place (you better lay your money down) You'll never stop What you started in the first place Between a rock You gotta roll with the punches baby Between a rock and a hard place... There's so many words You place your bet you take your chances The dealer pays But he'll never let you leave the table They're gonna take you lock, stock and barrel Down to the knuckle, down on your luck And when they've stripped you of all resistance You can take you place... Between a rock Between a rock and a hard place (you gotta lay your money down) You'll never stop What you started in the first place Between a rock You gotta roll with the punches baby Between a rock and a hard place... It'll take all your money We think we like it here Between a rock (you gotta roll with the punches baby) Between a rock and a hard place
