Out here on the road there's a thief in the night Sleep with one eye open after I turn out the light He tries to kill the dreams in my heart and in my head I live by the words that my grandpa always said, 'Don't Let Nobody Rob You of Your Joy' You've always known that you walk a different road You never worked from 9 to 5 or wore a tie and coat The narrow path you chose has been uphill and full of stones Believe me they've tried to steal all the seeds you have sown. So Don't Let Nobody Rob You of Your Joy Oh oh oh oh Oh oh oh oh Oh oh oh oh Oh oh oh oh Life is so short none of us is here for long In a perfect world we could all get along Step out of the darkness every woman child and man Open up your window let the light of love shine in. And Don't Let Nobody Rob You of Your Joy Yeah Don't Let Nobody Rob You of Your Joy Oh oh oh oh Oh oh oh oh Oh oh oh oh Oh oh oh oh
