Verse 1
I knew a man who liked to play around
He liked to do his thing all over town
He turned to me & said “now boy get real”
He said “now come along with me & then see how you feel & we’ll go”

Chorus
Just around the corner, just around the corner
Just around the corner & see how it feels to you

Verse 2
I knew a girl who got herself in a bind
She got a man she often caught him lyin’
She packed her bags & headed out of the door
She said “I aint putting up with that mother no more I’m going”

Verse 3
A friend of mine he used to rob & steal
He got a habit never knew what was real
The police got him & they played their hand
They said “now come along with us into the promised land” they took him

Verse 4
Remember this now when you’re feelin’ low
You can change the way you want to go
Don’t take a lot to make a change in the wind
If you’re not happy start all over again & go

Verse 5 (extra verse) (1998)
I knew a man & I knew a little girl
They tell me now how they changed their world
The friend of mine he disappeared around the bend
The last I heard they said they’d do it all again, they all went
