[Verse 1]
I could never make it in your house
You could never make it in mine
Even if we were both well meant and
I'm born in another time

[Chorus]
Just like a circle around the sun
Just like a circle around the sun
When my song has just begun
Just like a circle around the sun

[Verse 2]
I could never make it in your jail
You could never make it in mine
Even if we were both well meant and
I'm born in another time

[Chorus]
Just like a circle around the sun
I got my ticket in my hand
Then I'm bound for the promise land
Just like a circle around the sun

[Verse 3]
I could never lay down in your ditch
You would never want to in mine
Even if we were both well meant and
I'm born in another time
[Chorus]
Just like a circle around the sun
Just like a circle around the sun
When my song has just begun
Like a circle around the sun

[Verse 1]
I'd never make it in your house
You could never make it in mine
Even if we were both well meant and
I'm born in another time

[Chorus]
Just like a circle around the sun
Just like a circle around the sun
When my song has just begun
Just like a circle around the sun
