Shake It Down

The man from Japan says it's all a karma thrill

Before you can fly, you've gotta feel the chill

So if you dance all the way from the cradle to the grave

Well, you have to do it all again until your soul is saved

Where do I go from here?

There's gotta be a hole in the sky somewhere

I don't wanna come back 'round

I'm tired of being earthbound

Shake it down

You gotta make time to shake it

Shake it down

If at no time you're gonna make it

Shake it down

If you can't make it, fake it

Shake it down

All right

Shake it down

Philosophy will grow on trees

If you just leave it alone

And love will often multiply

'Cos you make more than you know

Where do I go from here?

There's gotta be a hole in the sky somewhere

I don't wanna come back 'round

I'm tired of being earthbound

Shake it down

You gotta make time to shake it

Shake it down

If at no time you're gonna make it

Shake it down

If you can't make it, fake it

Shake it down

All right

Shake it down

Hey, a soul can't be bought, nor can a soul be sold

'Cos it is just what it is, like a rose is just a rose

And if you dance all the way from the cradle to the grave

Well, you'll have to do it all again until your soul is saved

Where do I go from here?

There's gotta be a hole in the sky somewhere

I don't wanna come back 'round

I'm tired of being earthbound

Shake it down

You gotta make time to shake it

Shake it down

If at no time you're gonna make it

Shake it down

If you can't make it, fake it

Shake it down

All right

Shake it down

You gotta make time to shake it

Shake it down

If at no time you're gonna make it

Shake it down

If you can't make it, fake it

Shake it down

All right

Shake it down

Shake it down

Shake it down

Shake it down
