and I've been trying hard against unbelievable odds
It gets so hard at times like now to hold on
But guns they wait to be stuck by, at my side is God

there ain't no one goin' to turn me 'round
Verse 2
There's people around who tell you What they know
And places where they send you, and it's easy to go
They'll zip you up and dress you down and stand you in a row
But you know you don't have to, you can just say no
Chorus
And there ain't no one goin' to turn me 'round;
there ain't no one goin' to turn me 'round
And there ain't no one goin' to turn me 'round;
there ain't no one goin' to turn me 'round
