The Rumjacks
Stand Up
[Verse 1]
The world it seems to hate you
You cannot seem to break through
The spell that is upon you
Night & day

Nothing seems to go right
From morning through to midnight
Sometimes you gotta say "hey"
Go!

The city lights will blind you
Put it all behind you
You won't see the morning
Forever and a day

The world'll burn around you
A widow's curse upon you
You'll die
Regretting this day

[Chorus]
Stand up!
Keep fightin' come what may
Don't stop
When trouble comes your way
Fortunes
Will change is what they say
What they say to me-a
[Verse 2]
Your heart it will desert you
Your friends they try and hurt you
The evil eye looks upon you
All the time

Now you gotta be strong
You know you cannot run from the shadows
A-coming for you

[Chorus] x2
Stand up!
Keep fightin' come what may
Don't stop
When trouble comes your way
Fortunes
Will change is what they say
What they say to me-a

Stand up!
Keep fightin' come what may
Don't stop
When trouble comes your way
Fortunes
Will change is what they say
What they say to me-a
[Instrumental]

[Chorus] x2
Stand up!
Keep fightin' come what may
Don't stop
When trouble comes your way
Fortunes
Will change is what they say
What they say to me-a

Stand up!
Keep fightin' come what may
Don't stop
When trouble comes your way
Fortunes
Will change is what they say
What they say to me-a
What they say to me-a
