Long Way To Run

Looking back on situations I've been through
??? certainly no fun
Round the outside it's a long way to run

Each man who knows you
Has a lot to show you
Works hard just to keep you
Out of the lake
Where no one can take you away

New expression to keep me on my toes
Real good service has centrifugal force
Something ??? keeps me hanging around
Something else just keeps on bringing me down

Each man who knows you
Has a lot to show you
Works hard just to keep you
Side of the lake
Where no one can take you away
