 Become A Better Singer In Only 30 Days, With Easy Video Lessons!

I could have been star chambered
on the tree of rock’n’roll life
or maybe a railroad wife
I was railroaded once or twice
I might’ve dodged a bullet chambered
in the alley running for my life
I’m sure that I dodged a knife
I finally learned my lesson once or twice
  a million years ago
  I took a chance 
  & let it all unravel slow
  I bet on odd 
  ’til I broke even
  then I just had to go

I could’ve been things I don’t remember
a double-crossing wife
I was in another life
I’ve been buried once or twice
I played sixteen bars and what did I get
another town over & covered in sweat
almost run over
w/ another hangover & drunker in debt

a million years ago . . . 

where did I put my wings
I can never find those things
now I’m running, running late
I might be stuck here at my gate
though you may be dearly departed
dearly departed
I’m just getting started
