Keep Yourself Alive - Live At The Rainbow, London / March 1974

Keep yourself alive

Keep yourself alive

Get down!
Yeah

I was told a million times of all the troubles in my way
Might he grow a little wiser little better every day
But if I crossed a million rivers and I rode a million miles
Still be where I started, bread and butter for a smile
Sold a million mirrors in a shop in alleyway
But I never saw my face in any window any day
Now they say your folks are telling you, "Be a superstar"
Tell you just be satisfied and stay right where you are

Keep yourself alive, keep yourself alive
All you people keep yourself alive

That's right

(That's right)
Wow

Well I loved a million women in a belladonic haze
And I ate a million dinners brought to me on silver trays
Give me everything I need, feed my body and my soul
Grow a little bigger, maybe that can be my goal
Told a million times of all the people in my way
How I had to keep on trying and get better every day
But if I crossed a million rivers, rode a million miles
Still be where I started, same as when I started

Keep yourself alive, keep yourself alive
All you people keep yourself alive
