When I was a boy, I dreamed of being a better man I'd save people in distress, I'd throw outlaws in a concrete can I'd be flying high, just fine as wine, but then that wine turned into whiskey And now the outlaw in the mirror looks just like me
And I don't know who's been looking over my hide But they've done a great job of keeping me alive Lord only knows how hard a job that is But there's something about the nighttime life I just can't get enough, and I can't get it right But I'll be a better man someday
Well, I tried to a pick fruit from a forbidden tree But I ashed my cigarette into a can of gasoline And as I watched it burn, I had an epiphany Within the flames, why would I change I guess I'll just be me
And I don't know who's been looking over my hide But they've done a great job of keeping me alive Lord only knows how hard a job that is But there's something about the nighttime life I just can't get enough, and I can't get it right But I'll be a better man someday
If I could send me a letter back in time I'd address it to a 8-year-old boy who looked up to the stars at night Well, I'd say chase that dream and follow that long white line You were born to run, it's in your blood, I think that you'll be fine
And I don't know who's been looking over my hide But they've done a great job of keeping me alive Lord only knows how hard a job that is But there's something about the nighttime life I just can't get enough, and hell I'll never get it right But I'll be a better man someday Hope I can be a better man someday Hope I'll be a better man somedayTeksty umieszczone na naszej stronie są własnością wytwórni, wykonawców, osób mających do nich prawa.
