Still Got a Long Way to Go Songtext
von Jimmy Barnes & Diesel

I′ve got one more remaining hour
With you in this dusty room
(And you know that) just like some plastic flowers
You just never see them bloom

You know I, I burned the candle for you so many times
Oh they never burn too slow
And I've still got a long way to go

Listen now

I came across a wise man
Seemed that he might understand
I promised that he would lighten up my load (yes he did now)
Put my money in his hand
I thought he was a ticket man
Sent me off down the road
I put my trust in oh so many men
Never tell who′s friend or foe
And I've still got a long way to go


You know time, can be so hard (time can be so hard)
There ain't no shuffling of the cards that you′re dealt
This I know, now I know

I walked through fields of snow
Feeling warm from the after glow
I thought I would never feel the cold
(And you know that I) saw a star up in the sky
And I felt that it could be mine
Instead it was the king of rock ′n' roll
Yeah, and things ain′t always quite what they seem, no
I paid nothing to see the show
And I've still got a long way to go

Hey yeah yeah, yeah yeah yeah
(I still got a long way) I still got a long way
(Still got a long way) I still got a long way to go, no no (oh baby yeah)
(Still got a long way) still got a long way
(Still got a long way) still got a long, long, long, long, long way to go
(I still got a long way) still got a long way
(Still got a long way) long way, go no no no no no no no go no
