Ronnie Peterson - Merry Go Round Lyrics

One day you’re up next day you’re down
It’s a world of confusion; suspicion and illusion
Will you let it get ya?
How long can you hang on?
In the face of evil, do you think you can be strong?
The vertigo can throw you down
Merry-Go-Round

Every day gets harder it all goes by so fast
Beg, steal and barter
How long can you last?
When that wolf is howlin’ is your shotgun by the door?
Did you ever stop and wonder, just what you’re livin’ for?
Like a king without a crown
Merry-Go-Round

Strap on your seatbelt pull it nice and tight
Are your actions heartfelt? Can you navigate the night?
Can you handle all this pressure or will you simply crack
Of two evils there’s a lesser, but there’s no turning back

The vertigo can throw you down
Life is just a f*cking clown
This old world keeps spinning ‘round
Merry-Go-Round
