Schwa Lyrics

Top Of the World

Lyricist: Eric Sargent/Derek Donohue
Vocalist: Eric Sargent

I was camped down by a river when I saw the light
I climbed a waterfall but wouldn’t jump that night
I went back to the basement picked myself off the floor
I went up the stairs and through the rooftop door
And I did it with the radio on
All I ever needed was the right song

Don’t you wanna ride the merry go round
Don’t you wanna be there when it all goes down
Don’t you wanna feel it in your own town
Rock and Roll
Rock and Roll

I hit a rock and landed at the hide away
I gave the chief a smile and turned away a stray
Rode across the hill tops watched the ocean burn
Slept under a redwood ‘til the weather turned
And I did it with the radio on
All I ever needed was the right song
I listen inside
Every memory mine
Has a rhythm and rhyme
So I keep turning up the dial (So I turn up the dial)
And for a moment in time
I’m livin’ each line (I might be losing my mind)
All the time ridin’ high with
Rock and Roll
