The Comin' Round Is Going Through Lyrics - Bonnie Raitt

1 You got a way of running your mouth

2 You rant and rave, you left it all out

3 The thing about it is, little that you say is true

4 Why bother checkin', the facts'll be damned

5 It's how you spin it, it's part of the plan

6 I'm here to tell you that your sicken loan is coming due

7 Only so long you can keep this charade

8 Before they wake up and see they've been played

9 Too many people with their livin' at stake

10 Ain't gonna take it

11 The comin' round is going through

12 The comin' round is going through

13 You say it's workin', it's tricklin' down

14 Yeah, there's a trick, 'cause the jobs ain't around

15 From where you're sittin' tell me how you think you possibly know?

16 The way it feels to get turned away

17 Never enough, it's day after day

18 Yank that by your bootstraps

19 'Cause that's the way it really goes

20 Only so long you can keep this charade

21 Before they wake up and see they've been played

22 Too many people with their livin' at stake

23 Ain't gonna take it

24 The comin' round is going through

25 The comin' round is going through

26 'Cause when the money's makin' money, it comes down to a few

27 Got their hands on the throttle and nobody gets through

28 You can work all your life for a hand that will play

29 With one role of the dice, it gets swept away

30 Just look around, things are startin' to slip

31 You're outta control, and you're losin' your grip

32 No way to stop it, that river's spillin' over for good

33 We don't have the answer, we know what it's not

34 'Cause the people will keep pushin' 'til they get a shot

35 Your money's no good there, we wouldn't cash you a check if we could
