Status Quo - Cross That Bridge Lyrics






I wasn't born in the lap of lux, I didn't have no silver spoon
We all dream 'bout mega bucks like wishing for the moon.
They say money just buys you problems, bigger taxes, jealousy
Big decisions on what to do with it all, that's the kind of problem I need.

I would cross that bridge when I come to it, when I come to it, I wanna get to it
Gonna cross that bridge when I come to it, may be just around the bend.
Then I'm gonna burn that bridge other side of it, other side of it, greener side of it
Gonna burn that bridge other side of it, 'cos I never wanna go back there.

I thought I'd been in love but it's a feeling I can't trust
'Cos nine times out of nine I find I've been head over heels in lust
Married men say love's nothing but trouble like some kind of terminal disease
They say love's strange, love is blind, love hurts, well that's the kind of trouble I need.

I would cross that bridge when I come to it, when I come to it, hope I get to it
Gonna cross that bridge when I come to it, may be just around the bend.
I said never, never, never, never, never
Never come back again, no, never come back again.

They say money can't buy you happiness, and that true love never runs smooth
They talk of the trouble and the strife they bring
Well I don't care, 'cos here's what I would do

I would cross that bridge when I come to it, when I come to it, I wanna get to it
Gonna cross that bridge when I come to it, may be just around the bend.
Then I'm gonna burn that bridge other side of it, other side of it, lovely side of it
Gonna burn that bridge other side of it, 'cos I'd never wanna go back there.
I said never, never, never, never, never
Never come back again, no, never come back again.

    Just finished reading Francis Rossi, I Talk Too Much My Autobiography.

    Very, very interesting reading and I learnt a lot about Status Quo. How they started, up to the present day. Read the book, then some of you, will be so ready to pass judgement about one of the biggest bands in the World. I will say this much about the book, Francis is very open and honest about all the things that Quo have done throughout their entertainment careers. Some of it brilliant and some downright ugly in all honesty. Read the book, before passing judgement on my comments. :)

  7. A.... C....

    I wasn't born in a lap de-luxe
    I didn't have no silver spoon
    We all dream 'bout mega bucks
    Like wishing for the moon.

    They say money just buys you problems
    Bigger taxes, jealousy
    Big decisions on what to do with it all
    That's the kind of problem I mean.

    I would cross that bridge when I come to it
    When I come to it
    I wanna get to it
    Gonna cross that bridge when I come to it
    Maybe just around the bend.
    Then I'm gonna burn that bridge other side of it
    Other side of it
    Greener side of it
    Gonna burn that bridge other side of it
    'cos I'll never wanna go back there.

    I thought I'd been in love
    But it's a feeling I can't trust
    'cos nine times out of nine I find
    I've been head over heels in lust
    Married men say, love's nothing but trouble
    Like it's some kind of terminal disease
    They say love's strange, love is blind, love hurts
    Well, that's the kind of trouble I need.

    I would cross that bridge when I come to it
    When I come to it
    I wanna get to it
    Gonna cross that bridge when I come to it
    Maybe just around the bend.

    I said never, never, never, never - never
    Never come back again - no
    Never come back again.

    They say money can't buy you happiness
    And that true love never runs smooth
    They talk of the trouble, and the strife they bring
    Well I don't care, 'cos here's what I would do

    I would cross that bridge when I come to it
    When I come to it
    I wanna get to it
    Gonna cross that bridge when I come to it
    Maybe just around the bend.

    Then I'm gonna burn that bridge other side of it
    Other side of it
    Greener side of it
    Gonna burn that bridge other side of it
    'cos I'll never wanna go back there.

    I said never, never, never, never - never
    Never come back again - no
    Never come back again

  28. V.... L....
