I Wanna Go Where The People Go (Early Version)

Lyrics
Out of the misery to wash my soul
Follow me round with a blue eight count
I only came to rock 'n' roll
Check in the mirror and I don't mind
If it's a face that secures my place
Then I'll leave it all behind
So I gave it the distance, avoiding the business
And me? in time, let it shine, let it shine
Well...
I wanna go where the people go yeah
(I wanna go where the people go yeah)
I wanna go where the people go yeah
(I wanna go where the people go yeah)
Take me there, anywhere
Just as long as there's an atmosphere
We'll be round, round, round
Come on down, we all went down
Taking the time out to look and learn
Not a regret to carry round
And no bridges left to burn
Living a cliché, go round and around
Suffer the present and the past
Until something else is found
If pride is a memory, is nobody angry?
And me? in time, let it shine, let it shine
Well...
I wanna go where the people go yeah
(I wanna go where the people go yeah)
I wanna go where the people go yeah
(I wanna go where the people go yeah)
Take me there, anywhere
Just so long as there's an atmosphere
We'll be round, round, round
Come on down, we all went down
Grins are rare and black is back
Only last week they were lumberjacks
Maybe they're hiding the tension inside
And they're waiting for guidance
To get off their seat and react
(Oh yeah, oh yeah, oh yeah, oh yeah)
(Oh yeah, oh yeah, oh yeah, oh yeah)
Or settle back
(Oh yeah, oh yeah, oh yeah, oh yeah)
(Oh yeah, oh yeah, oh yeah, oh yeah)
(Oh yeah, oh yeah, oh yeah, oh yeah)
(Oh yeah, oh yeah, oh yeah, oh yeah)
(Oh yeah, oh yeah, oh yeah, oh yeah)
(Oh yeah, oh yeah)
Well…
I wanna go where the people go yeah
(I wanna go where the people go yeah)
I wanna go where the people go yeah
(I wanna go where the people go yeah)
Take me there, anywhere
Just so long as there's an atmosphere
We'll be round, round, round
Come on down, we all went down
We went down
We went down
We went down (we all went down)
We went down (we all went down) Hey!
Follow me round with a blue eight count
I only came to rock 'n' roll
Check in the mirror and I don't mind
If it's a face that secures my place
Then I'll leave it all behind
So I gave it the distance, avoiding the business
And me? in time, let it shine, let it shine
Well...
I wanna go where the people go yeah
(I wanna go where the people go yeah)
I wanna go where the people go yeah
(I wanna go where the people go yeah)
Take me there, anywhere
Just as long as there's an atmosphere
We'll be round, round, round
Come on down, we all went down
Taking the time out to look and learn
Not a regret to carry round
And no bridges left to burn
Living a cliché, go round and around
Suffer the present and the past
Until something else is found
If pride is a memory, is nobody angry?
And me? in time, let it shine, let it shine
Well...
I wanna go where the people go yeah
(I wanna go where the people go yeah)
I wanna go where the people go yeah
(I wanna go where the people go yeah)
Take me there, anywhere
Just so long as there's an atmosphere
We'll be round, round, round
Come on down, we all went down
Grins are rare and black is back
Only last week they were lumberjacks
Maybe they're hiding the tension inside
And they're waiting for guidance

(I wanna go where the people go yeah)
I wanna go where the people go yeah
(I wanna go where the people go yeah)
Take me there, anywhere
Just so long as there's an atmosphere
We'll be round, round, round
Come on down, we all went down
We went down
We went down
We went down (we all went down)
We went down (we all went down) Hey!
