Lyrics
Gerdy
(Gerdy): Get me going, get me going
You get me going---ha!
V1: Whipped up in the morning
Like a horse on espresso
Bridge down to nowhere
All excuses have got to go
PreCh: So keep your head up
Ride ahead (move ahead)
The tightrope tests my faith instead
(Gerdy): Get me going, get me going
You get me going---ha!
V2: Life scares me silly
What a day---it's a rough ride
Rocking and rolling
Oh, to be knowing, everything's all right
PreCh: Keep your head up
Move ahead
The tightrope test my faith instead
Ch: And they run to higher ground
Saying Galloping Gerdy's coming down!
Lead
(Gerdy)
V3: I am the bridge
Galloping at winds
Ninety miles an hour!
Don't let me break
Man, I'm going
Feel the awesome power
PreCh
Ch: And they run to higher ground
Saying Galloping Gerdy's coming down!
No safe haven will be found
When Galloping Gerdy's coming down!
(Gerdy)
