Lyrics David Bowie – Yassassin (Turkish For Long Live)

CHORUS
Yassassin — I’m not a moody guy
Yassassin — I walk without a sound
Yassassin —

We came from the farmlands
To live in this city
We walked proud and lustful
In this resonant world
You want to fight
But I don’t want to leave
Or drift away

CHORUS

Look at this — no second glances
Look at this — no value of love
Look at this — just sun and steel
Look at this — then look at us

If there’s someone in charge
Then listen to me
Don’t say nothing’s wrong
‘Cause I’ve got a love
And she’s afeared
You want to fight
But I don’t want to leave
Or drift away

CHORUS

Yassassin, Yassassin, Yassassin
