I Put Away My Idols Songtext
von Dion

I was raised on New York rock and roll
I took control
I was cool

Made the rounds
Made the record hops
I hit the top
Played the fool

From above I truly heard a friend
Truly now you must be born again

I put away my idols
I stripped away all the titles
Money wrinkles and things do decay
I put away my idols

I was living by my horoscope
Taking pills to cope
With my pain
Rock and roll was my identity
My whole security
I made a name


Truly from above I heard a friend
Truly now you must be born again

I put away my idols
I stripped away all the titles
Money wrinkles and things do decay
I put away my idols

Looking back over my years
My story did unfold
I worshipped people and their gifts
Not the gift giver at all

Well you see
People they′ve come and gone
But life in Him goes on and on
He's given me a brand new song
To sing

I put away my idols
I stripped away all the titles
Money wrinkles and things do decay
I put away my idols

Truly now you must be born again
Truly that′s the way you will begin


You put away your idols
I stripped away the titles
Money wrinkles
Things do decay
I put away my idols

Cadillacs end up in the junkyard
I put away my idols
