These Are Not My People Lyrics

First your mama and your papa sent you to the finest school
Never let it be said that their little darling was a fool
With a credit card and your good name
Your drawn like a moth to a flame
To the people of the night where you more or less lost your cool

Yeah, you had 20/20 vision and still you were walking around blind
Yes, and whether right or wrong I still tag along behind
But you're flying too high for me
And if this is how it's got to be
Then it's time to say you go your way I go mine
It's been a gas, but I'm gonna have to pass

These are not my people
These are not my people
Looks like the end, my friend
Going get in the wind, my friend

You find yourself naked in the world when no place to hide
Then you felt the pulse of your mind and it had died
And all you rebels that have got no cause
And all you tigers that have got no claws
They promise you the world on a string, but you know they lied

Yeah, you said you'd be back in a black Cadillac limousine
But I'm inclined to think it's not the kind you mean
Cause when you fall down off your cloud
And your just another face in the crowd
They're gonna throw you away like last weeks magazines
Party pals and socialable gals

These are not my people, no
These are not my people
Looks like the end, my friend
Going get in the wind, my friend

Looks like the end, my friend
Gotta get in the wind, my friend

Looks like the end, my friend
Going get in the wind, my friend
