David Bowie Lyrics

"Yassassin (Turkish For: Long Live)" lyrics


Yassassin - I'm not a moody guy
Yassassin - I walk without a sound
Yassassin - Just a working man, no judge of men
Yassassin - But such a life I've never known

We came from the farmlands
To live in the city
We walked proud and lustful
In this resonant world

You want to fight
But I don't want to leave
Or drift away

Yassassin, etc. (chorus)

Look at this - no second glances
Look at this - no value of love
Look at this - just sun and steel
Look at this - then look at us

If there's someone in charge
Then listen to me
Don't say nothing's wrong
'Cause I've got a love
And she's afeared

You want to fight
But I don't want to leave
Or drift away

Yassassin, etc. (chorus)
