Raincheck
Van Morrison

from Days Like This

     It's not high finance, it's called heart and soul 
     If it's rock and roll, got to go, go, go, go, go 
     Gonna keep moving on up to the higher ground 
     Gonna keep on moving on up, I got to stand my ground 
     Gonna keep on moving on up, I wanna stick around 
     Won't let the bastards grind me down 
     Won't let the bastards grind me down 
     Won't let the bastards grind me down 

     Call me raincheck in the afternoon 
     Call me raincheck, need a shot of rhythm and blues 
     Call me raincheck, on a golden autumn day 
     Call me raincheck, I won't fade away, I won't fade away 
     I don't fade away, I don't fade away, unless I want to 

     Can't take my love away, ah 'cause it's here to stay 
     If it fades away, come back another day 
     Gonna keep on moving on up to the higher ground 
     Gonna keep on moving on up, I wanna stick around 
     Gonna keep on moving on up, oh gonna stand my ground 
     Won't let the bastards grind me down 
     Won't let the bastards grind me down 
     Won't let the bastards grind me down 

     My name is raincheck in the afternoon 
     My name is raincheck, need a shot of rhythm and blues 
     My name is raincheck, on a golden autumn day 
     My name is raincheck, and I don't fade away, I don't fade away 
     I don't fade away, I don't fade away, unless I want to 

     Move it up, move it up, move it up, move it up 
     Move it up, move it up, move it up, move it up 
     Move it up, move it up, move it up, move it up, move it up 
     Grind me down, grind me down, grind me down 

     My name is raincheck in the afternoon 
     My name is raincheck, need a shot of rhythm and blues 
     My name is raincheck, on a golden autumn day 
     My name is raincheck, and I don't fade away, I don't fade away 
     I don't fade away, I don't fade away, unless I want to 

     Put on your dancing shoes, dance away your blues 
     When I'm feeling like this, I got nothing to lose 
     Wanna keep on moving on up to the higher ground 
     Wanna keep on moving on up and I'll stick around 
     Wanna keep on moving on up, got to stand my ground 
     Won't let the bastards grind me down 
     Won't let the bastards grind me down 
     Oh, won't let the bastards grind me down 

     My name is raincheck in the afternoon 
     My name is raincheck, need a shot of rhythm and blues 
     My name is raincheck, on a golden autumn day 
     My name is raincheck, and I don't fade away, I don't fade away 
     I don't fade away, I don't fade away, unless I choose 
     I choose, I choose, I choose 

     No, I don't fade away, I don't fade away, I don't fade away 
     Unless I choose, I choose, I choose 
     I choose, I choose, I choose 
     I choose, I choose, I choose 
     I choose, I choose, I choose 
     I choose, I choose, I choose 
     No, I won't fade away, I won't fade away, I don't fade away 
     Unless I want to
