COULDN'T GET IT RIGHT Climax Blues Band Time was drifting, this rock had got to roll So I hit the road and made my getaway Restless feeling, really got a hold I started searching for a better way But I kept on looking for a sign In the middle of the night But I couldn't see the light No I couldn't see the light I kept on looking for a way To take me through the night I couldn't get it right I couldn't get it right L.A. fever made me feel alright But I must admit it got the best of me Getting down, so deep I could have drowned Now, I can't get back the way I used to be (repeat chorus) New York City took me with the tide And I nearly died from hospitality Left me stranded, took away my pride Just another no account fatality (repeat chorus)
