We Can’t Be Beat Lyrics
[Verse 1]
I was the Duke of Earl, the Duke of Earl
But it couldn't last
I was the Pony Express
But I ran out of gas
Golden dreams, golden dreams
All lose their glow
I don't need perfection
I love the whole
[Verse 2]
Give me a life
That needs correction
Nobody loves
Loves perfection
Loneliness, loneliness
Will run you through
All the kids are laughing
I'm laughing too
[Verse 3]
If you want my eyes, take my eyes
They're always true
If you want my heart, take my heart
It's right here for you
It's been so long, been so long
But I made it through
It's been so long, been so long
But I made it through
It's been so long
[Outro]
We'll never leave
We can't be beat
We can't be beat
We'll never leave
We can't be beat
The world is ours
We can't be beat
We can't be beat
