Here To Stay                                                  © L. Dunn ‘93

                        Verse               Been around this town long before we met

                                                I haven’t been knocked down and counted out yet

                                                Of all the things I’ve been through

                                                Take a whole lot more to stop me than somebody like you

                                                Get it through your head I’m not goin’ away

                                                You’d better realize that I am here to stay

                        Verse               I’m like an engine that just won’t stop

                                                I keep on tickin’ like I swallowed a clock

                                                I’m a cat got all nine lives

                                                I’m here to stay I’ve made up my mind

                                                Get it through your head I’m not goin’ away

                                                You’d better realize that I am here to stay

                                                Solo

                        Verse               On your way up you burned a friend or two

                                                Paid no attention to the golden rule

                                                Times will change but what you’ve done is done

                                                And as sure as I’m here your time’s gonna come

                                                Get it through your head I’m not goin’ away

                                                You’d better realize that I am here to stay

                                                Solo

                        Verse               Any way the wind blows you’ll be found

                                                When bad weather hits you blow outta town

                                                Well thunder and rain never slowed me down

                                                And when the sun comes out I’ll still be around

                                                Get it through your head I’m not goin’ away

                                                You’d better realize that I am here to stay

                                                You’d better realize that I am here to stay

                                                You’d better realize that I am here to stay
