Grand Funk Railroad - Stop Lookin' Back Lyrics






Stuck in the county jail,
Nobody here gonna' pay my bail.
Thirty days with a smelly drunk,
A turn-key callin' me a dirty punk.
I got to pick myself up, and stop lookin' back.
And I've got to move straight ahead, stop lookin' back.

[CHORUS]
Shoot for the stars when my eyes can't see the starlight.
Reach for the sun in the night.
Stop lookin' back at the times I was defeated,
I pick myself up, I move straight ahead, I stop lookin' back.

Stranded! Nothing worse.
I'm livin' on coffee, I got an empty purse.
I'm dreamin' 'bout blue eyes lookin' my way,
Hopin' my dreams don't blow away.
I got to pick myself up, and stop lookin' back.
And I've got to move straight ahead, stop lookin' back.

[CHORUS]

    Grand Funk wore many hats . their albums included , Blues , Soul , Funk , hard rock , soft rock ,
    heavy metal , pop ,, and everyone took a piece . Sabbath took their metal , van Halen took their flash.
    Journey took their girl songs appeal , Guns and Roses took their rebel hard rock image .

    I saw them in Des Moines Vets jan.73 and REO opened up with their new lead singer Kevin. And REO II just came out. That's when REO was still kicking ass. Before their power ballad crap.

    Seen these guys 1973 in Madison Wisconsin. Wet Willie Band opened for them. An excellent show.
