Cold days  hot nights - when you're freezing  On the street in the neon lights.  Cold days  hot nights -  When the wind blows in your face and memory bites.    I was young back in sixty-nine  And life was simple like a nursery rhyme.  I could never guess what lay ahead    You didn't hear what the folks all said.  You can dream till it drives you mad    Fall in love with what you never had.  Then you got it  so good for you    Don't you see what you're coming to! you're coming to.  Cold days  hot nights - when you're freezing . . .    Cold days  hot nights - when you're tryin'  To beat the world and losing the fight.  Cold days  hot nights -  it's a little too late put it all right.    I survive  I keep on my feet    Don't hide my face away from folks I meet.  But as the years go by I stay the same    I oughta change around and play the game.  Where's your heart  can you find your soul?  What's your target and your final goal?  Is there something you look forward to?  Or do you let your days roU. over you  roll over you?    Cold days  hot nights - when you're freezing . . .  Cold days  hot nights - when you're tryin' . . .  Cold days  hot nights - cold days  hot nights.
