I know a carpenter who had a dream

Killed the man but you couldn't kill the dream

Who said it was easy

People gotta be free

And the band keeps on playin'



I know people who want to go far

Make big movies and become a star

People got to dream

Dreamer who said it was easy

And the band played

Play for me



Now I've seen people from near and far

They couldn't get to heaven in their car

Who said it was easy

Driver drive on uh



Oooo let the wind carry your blues away

That's all we're tryin' to say

How 'bout a better day

Fall in love

Oooooo ooh



And the band keeps on playin'

Play for me



Do you wonder where you are

Wake up in bed with a star

That was easy

Dreamer dream on

And the band keeps on playing

Play
