It`s The Singer Not The Song

You hear a different drummer Your job is sheer frustration You're looking for a way to check out from this grind It's just another summer You wrestle with temptation Still you wonder if you've got the clout Cause there's a lifetime chance you've yet to find To make it happen in this cold hearted town And you're feelin' that you're trapped You wonder should you just stop tryin' Take a message from the man Who's not afraid to come on strong When there's magic in the music It's the singer not the song When it's comin' from the heart All the people sing along It's the man behind the music It's the singer not the song Inside your heart is achin' There's challenge for the takin' So shoot it from the hip Believe in what you say You're calling this your best fight You're lookin' for the limelight Reachin' for a star to guide you on your way Still you wonder if you've got the clout And you're feelin' that you lost To make a difference in this cold hearted town You wonder should you just stop tryin' Well give the glory to the man Who's not afraid to come on strong When there's magic in the music It's the singer not the song All the people sing along When it's comin' from the heart It's the man behind the music It's the singer not the song Who's not afraid to come on strong They give the glory to the man When there's magic in the music It's the singer not the song All the people sing along When it's comin' from the heart It's the man behind the music It's the singer not the song
