Born Under Punches (The Heat Goes On) [Live]
Take a look at these hands
Take a look at these hands
The hand speaks
The hand of a government man
Well, I'm a tumbler
Born under punches
I'm so thin
All I want is to breathe
Won't you breathe with me?
Find a little space
So we move in-between
And keep one step ahead of yourself
Don't you miss it, don't you miss it
Some of you people just about missed it
Last time to make plans
I'm a tumbler
I'm a government man
Never seen anything like that before
Falling bodies tumble 'cross the floor
I said I'm a tumbler
When you get to where you wanna be
I don't even mention it
When you get to where you wanna be
Thank you! Thank you!
Take a look at these hands
They're passing in-between us
Take a look at these hands
Take a look at these hands
You don't have to mention it
No thanks, no thanks
I'm a government man
And the heat goes on and the heat goes on
And the heat goes on and the heat goes on
And the heat goes on where the hand has been
And the heat goes on and the heat goes on
And the heat goes on and the heat goes on
And the heat goes on and the heat goes on
And the heat goes on where the hand has been
And the heat goes on and the heat goes on
I'm not a drowning man (And the heat goes on and the heat goes on)
And I'm not a burning building (And the heat goes on and the heat goes on)
I'm a tumbler (And the heat goes on where the hand has been)
Drowning cannot hurt a man
Fire cannot hurt a man (And the heat goes on and the heat goes on)
Not the government man
All I want is to breathe (And the heat goes on and the heat goes on)
Breathe with me
Won't you breathe with me? (And the heat goes on and the heat goes on)
Find a little space (And the heat goes on and the heat goes on)
So we move in-between (And the heat goes on and the heat goes on)
Between it!
And keep one step ahead of yourself (And the heat goes on and the heat goes on)
I'm catching up with myself
All I want is to breathe (And the heat goes on and the heat goes on)
Won't you breathe with me? (And the heat goes on and the heat goes on)
Find a little space (And the heat goes on and the heat goes on)
So we move in-between (And the heat goes on and the heat goes on)
And keep one step ahead of yourself
Take a look at these hands
The hand speaks
The hand of a government man
Well, I'm a tumbler
Born under punches
I'm so thin
All I want is to breathe
Won't you breathe with me?
Find a little space
So we move in-between
And keep one step ahead of yourself
Don't you miss it, don't you miss it
Some of you people just about missed it
Last time to make plans
I'm a tumbler
I'm a government man
Never seen anything like that before
Falling bodies tumble 'cross the floor
I said I'm a tumbler
When you get to where you wanna be
I don't even mention it
When you get to where you wanna be
Thank you! Thank you!
Take a look at these hands
They're passing in-between us
Take a look at these hands
Take a look at these hands
You don't have to mention it
No thanks, no thanks
I'm a government man
And the heat goes on and the heat goes on
And the heat goes on and the heat goes on
And the heat goes on where the hand has been
And the heat goes on and the heat goes on
And the heat goes on and the heat goes on
And the heat goes on and the heat goes on
And the heat goes on where the hand has been
And the heat goes on and the heat goes on
I'm not a drowning man (And the heat goes on and the heat goes on)
And I'm not a burning building (And the heat goes on and the heat goes on)

So we move in-between (And the heat goes on and the heat goes on)
And keep one step ahead of yourself
