Lyrics

Right In The Middle

Whoa oh oh oh

Whoa oh oh oh

Whoa oh oh oh

Everybody's talkin but it doesn't mean a lot

How they always judge ya by all the things ya got

If dreams can be remembered why should words be ignored

Need a new direction something to work toward

So much is happenin' overwhelming me

All I can do all I can say

I'm gonna stay right in the middle

Pulled to the left pulled to the right

I'm always stuck right in the middle

Whoa oh oh oh

Whoa oh oh oh

I had a chance to make some trouble

Had a chance to make it right

Everyday becomes a struggle

And it keeps me up all night

So much is happening overwhelming me

All I can do all I can say

I'm gonna stay right in the middle

Pulled to the left pulled to the right

I'm always stuck right in the middle

Stuck right in the middle

Whoa

Sometimes I feel like I been forgotten

And brushed aside

But I don't really care

So I ain't gonna break my stride

All I can do all I can say

I'm gonna stay right in the middle

Pulled to the left pulled to the right I think

I think I'll stick right in the middle

Stick right in the middle

Whoa oh oh oh

Whoa oh oh oh

Whoa oh oh oh

Whoa oh oh oh

Whoa oh oh oh

Whoa oh oh oh

Whoa oh oh oh

Whoa oh oh oh
