Hope Don't Work

They knocked me down again
Flat on my back, out cold
Scared you'll see me and want to run away
I get back on my feet to carry on down the road

Filled with words you can't say
It's an ugly stain on your soul
There ain't no one can help you learn to love your way
So you get back on your feet to carry on down the road

Last thing I remember I was hoping it falls in place
But hope don't work baby. No, hope don't work baby
Last thing I remember I was hoping to find my way
Back to you

A man needs something to make
A name or himself or a home
And there ain't no time for the man of yesterday
So he gets back on his feet to carry on down the road

Last thing I remember I was hoping it falls in place
But hope don't work baby. No, hope don't work baby
Last thing I remember I was hoping to find my way
Back to you

They knocked me down again
But I got closer than before
I want to celebrate but it's too hard to explain
So I get back on my feet to carry on down the road

Last thing I remember I was hoping it falls in place
But hope don't work baby. No, hope don't work baby
Last thing I remember I was hoping to find my way
Back to you, 'cause I think you told me to
