Raincheck

My name is Raincheck
I don't fade away

Grind me down

Gon' keep on moving on up

Unless I want to

My name is Raincheck
Got to stand my ground

I got nothing to lose

I choose, I choose
To the higher ground
My name is Raincheck
Need a shot of rhythm and blues
On a golden, autumn day
My name is Raincheck
My name is Raincheck
Gon' keep on moving on up
Wan' keep on moving on up

Unless I choose

In the afternoon
I choose, I choose, I choose
And I'll stick around

I don't fade away
Need a shot of rhythm and blues
And I don't fade away

My name is Raincheck
I don't fade away
My name is Raincheck
I wanna stick around
My name is Raincheck

I don't fade away
Won't let the bastards grind me down

Come back another day

Gon' keep moving on up
My name is Raincheck
Call me Raincheck
On a golden, autumn day
Got to go, go, go, go, go
On a golden, autumn day
Move it up, move it up, move it up
Ah, 'cause it's here to stay
I wanna stick around
Need a shot of rhythm and blues
I don't fade away
Put on your dancing shoes
Move it up, move it up
Oh, won't let the bastards grind me down
Won't let the bastards grind me down

Oh, gonna stand my ground
Won't let the bastards grind me down
Can't take my love away

To the higher ground
Need a shot of rhythm and blues
Call me Raincheck
Gon' keep on moving on up

I choose, I choose, I choose
Gon' keep on moving on up
Call me Raincheck
In the afternoon

Unless I want to
Won't let the bastards grind me down
I got to stand my ground
I won't fade away
In the afternoon

Unless I want to
Wan' keep on moving on up
I don't fade away

Unless I choose
Won't let the bastards grind me down
And I don't fade away
Gon' keep on moving on up
Call me Raincheck
I won't fade away
I choose, I choose, I choose

I don't fade away
Wan' keep on moving on up
Move it up, move it up
I choose, I choose, I choose
On a golden, autumn day
My name is Raincheck
In the afternoon
Move it up, move it up
I don't fade away

Dance away your blues
Grind me down
Won't let the bastards grind me down
I don't fade away
I don't fade away
When I'm feeling like this
I don't fade away
I don't fade away
My name is Raincheck
And I don't fade away
Move it up, move it up
I won't fade away
I don't fade away
If it's rock and roll
Grind me down
I choose, I choose, I choose
To the higher ground
Move it up, move it up
If it fades away
Won't let the bastards grind me down
No, I won't fade away
Won't let the bastards grind me down
My name is Raincheck

I don't fade away
No, I don't fade away
