Well there's a preacher on the corner
Calling out my name
Tellin' me to change some thing
Or some things are going to change.

Well one of these days, it won't be long
He's going to have to call it quits
I'm going to wave a little something in his face
And show him just where I live

I ain't ever given in
I ain't ever given in
I ain't ever given in
Anytime soon

Well I got me a girl in San Francisco
And she knows everything
She likes to go down to the jewelry store
And try on the diamond rings
She thinks there's going to be a day
When I'm going to lose my will
And when I do, well you-know-who
Is going to move in for the kill

I ain't ever given in
I ain't ever given in
I ain't ever given in
Anytime soon

Bright lights in the middle of the night
The rabbits on the run
Well they're going to do me

They'll have to do better than they done
