It's gonna happen
Before too long
It's gettin' hard to tell
Who's right and who's wrong
I can see it comin'
So I gotta be strong
There's gonna be a showdown
There's gonna be
Changes in this town
We're gonna see a showdown
A time's gonna come
In the future when
A whole lotta people
Gonna think again
We're gonna keep right on
Till you break and then
Do you want to be out of touch
Only you can decide
For something different
You're out of luck
'Cause on we will ride
On we're gonna ride
Ride on, oh, ride on
Come on
The music explodes
Like a gun in your hand
We're gonna give you more
Than your head can stand
Then we'll sit down
And talk man to man
There's gonna be a showdown
We're gonna see
Changes in this town
We're gonna see a showdown
Showdown ...
