Lyrics

[Verse 1]

Oh, yeah

[Verse 2]

I stood up straight and sang

For the record and company man

My enthusiasm filled the room

I was young, and I was keen

With the Devil in my stream

As I hollered out an old blues tune

[Verse 3]

We can't sign you, son

'Cause you don't fit in the mold

It's your hair and your nose and your clothes

I said, "Thank you, gentlemen

For this opportunity"

Now move on down the road

[Verse 4]

And I remember I used to say

[Verse 5]

They can't stop me now

The world is waiting

It's my turn to stand out in the crowd

They can't stop me now

The tide is turnin'

I'm gonna make you proud

So proud, so proud

[Verse 6]

Well, rough and it was tough

But I couldn't get enough

Of this rhythm and blues I craved

I was singin' in the pubs

Singin' in the clubs

Then along came Maggie May

[Verse 7]

And all the things he said to me

And all the things I heard

I had a point to prove, oh, yeah

I will climb this mountain

With this God-given gift

If it's the last thing that I do

[Verse 8]

And I remember thinkin'

[Verse 9]

They can't stop me now

The world is waiting

It's my turn to stand out in the crowd

They can't stop me now

The tide is turnin'

I'm gonna make you proud

[Verse 10]

They can't stop me now (So proud)

The world is waitin' (So proud)

I'm gonna stand out in the crowd (Can't stop me)

They can't stop me now

The tide is turnin'

I'm gonna make you proud

[Verse 11]

Born to ramble

Born to sing

In a new world of rock and roll

One man in particular

Filled my heart with pride

And he fired up my soul, oh, yeah

[Verse 12]

Thanks for the faith

Thanks for the patience

Thanks for the helpin' hand

Thanks for the love

Thanks for the guidance

Thanks for the tartan pride

[Verse 13]

Oh, they can't stop me now

The world is waitin'

It's my turn to stand out in the crowd

They can't stop me now

The tide is turnin'

I'm gonna make you proud

[Verse 14]

They can't stop me now

The world is waitin'

It's my turn to stand out in the crowd

They can't stop me now

The tide is turnin'

I'm gonna make you proud

[Verse 15]

They can't stop me now (Can't stop me)

The world is waitin' (Can't stop me)

It's my turn to stand out in the crowd (Can't stop me)

They can't stop me now

The world is waitin'

I'm gonna make you proud

So proud, so proud

[Verse 16]

They can't stop me now

The world is waitin'

It's my turn to stand out in the crowd

They can't stop me now

The tide is turnin'

I'm gonna make you proud
