In the early morning light you step into the cold
Your curses freeze mid air, the bus is late
You`ve got to get to work on time, your job is on the line
Soon you`ll start again, the same routine

Deep inside your mind, the dreamers dream you`ll find
As the day is long, it keeps you moving on
Trying to stay ahead as best you can

Sweep away the notion of a revolution
Do it for yourself

[Chorus]
(There`s no stoppin`)
(Living against the river)
Do what you do what you do
(Got to keep pushing)
(When you`re living against the river)
Do what you do what you do

As the light begins to fade and you`re heading back for home
Your head is hanging low, you`re feeling blue
From the corner of your eyes, under neon lights you see
The old man in the snow with worn out shoes

Sweep away the notion of a revolution
Do it for yourself

[Chorus until fade]
