Clapton Hey kid! don't you lean on me, I wanna talk to you, about Solidarity, Hey ma! I keep falling on my knees, And I need you now in Solidarity; Here we go, into this time zone, Into the unknown, and I don't know you You don't know me - It's such a grand slide, The big roller coaster ride, Still you can't understand, I'm on your side. Hey kid! don't you lean on me, I wanna talk to you, about Solidarity, Hey ma! I keep falling on my knees, And I need you now in Solidarity; Big guns, talking from Washington, To people in Taiwan, Downing Street,London, NATO and Western Alliance, News on the hour, And everyone's screaming: "We want power!" Hey kid! don't you lean on me, I wanna talk to you, about Solidarity, Hey ma! I keep falling on my knees, And I need you now in Solidarity; T.V. like a face in the mirror, I ain't a quitter – don't you call me a sinner, Sometimes – it all seems so futile, But there's so much that's worthwhile, And I just want to go on living.
