Don't Stop For No One

Don't stop for no-one

And then it goes on

(repeat 3 times)

One day my father said to me

'It's time for you to leave

But don't wait for me, it's pre-destiny'

Don't wait around for someone to believe in

You know, history don't stop for no-one

Just like Moses waiting on the mountain

You know, history don't stop for no-one

Don't hang around in Babylonian Gardens

You know, history don't stop for no-one

The pyramids are just a tourist attraction

You know, history don't stop for no-one

Don't stop for no-one

And then it goes on

(repeat)

Sometimes I told I must confess

To a life of tenderness

But I just repeat what he said to me:

'Don't close your eyes 'cuz seeing is believing'

You know, history don't stop for no-one

Just like a child, fighting for a meaning

You know, history don't stop for no-one

Don't dream too long, it's time to awake now

You know, history don't stop for no-one

Like sleeping beauty waiting for a kiss now

You know, history don't stop for no-one

I think you know the way it's gonna go now

You know, history don't stop for no-one

From Aztech kings to New York queens

And then it goes on
