(Get A) Grip (On Yourself) - 1996 Remaster

Lyrics

Didn't have the money 'round to buy a Morry Thou
 Been around and seen a lot to shake me anyhow
 Begged and borrowed sometimes, I admit I even stole
 The worse crime that I ever did, was playing rock 'n roll
 But the money's no good
 Just get a grip on yourself
 But the money's no good
 Just get a grip on yourself
 Suffering convictions on a two-way stretch inside
 The air in here is pretty thin, I think I'll go outside
 Committed for insanity and crimes against the soul
 The worst crime that I ever did, was play some rock 'n roll
 But the money's no good
 Just get a grip on yourself
 But the money's no good
 Just get a grip on yourself
 And you should know
 ♪
 Now I find from week to week the sentence sticking fast
 Turn the corner, rub my eyes, and hope the world will last
 Stranger from another planet, welcome to our hole
 Just strap on your guitar, and we'll play some rock 'n roll
 But the money's no good
 Just get a grip on yourself
 But the money's no good
 Just get a grip on yourself
 And you should know
