Rudy

Rudy's on a train to nowhere

Halfway down the line

He don't wanna get there, but he needs time

He ain't sophisticated

Or well-educated

After all the hours he's wasted, still he needs time

He needs time

He needs a-time for livin'

He needs time

For someone just to see him

He ain't had no lovin'

For no reason or rhyme

And the whole world's above him

Well, it's not as though he's fat

No, there's more to it than that

See, he tried to play it cool

Wouldn't be nobody's fool

Rudy thought

That all good things

Comes to those that wait

But recently

He could see

That it may come, but too late

Too late, too late

All through your life, all through the years

Nobody loved, nobody cared

So dim the light, dark are your fears

Try as I might, I can't hold back the tears

How can you live without love? It's not fair

Someone said, "Give," but I just didn't dare

I didn't dare, I didn't dare

What good advice are you waiting to hear?

Hearing's alright for them that's all there

Hearing's alright, you better

You'd better gain control now

You'd better show 'em all now

You'd better make or break 'em

You'd better give and take 'em

You'll have to push and shove now

You'll have to find some love now

You'd better gain control now

Now, he's just come out the movie

Numb of all the pain

Sad, but in a while he'll soon be

Back on his train
