Liven up, loose the chains
It's hard to lie down in the driving rain
I lost a job I thought I had
My friends say, maybe that ain't so bad
You gotta lose boy, to learn to win
Life's just a game I'll never understand
But the ride is rough
And when you fall, you better get back up
Take the reins by the hand
And learn to fall like a man
My baby called from the south of France
And said, I know what you want buddy
But there ain't no chance
I finally found my pot of gold
And what you hide mine, is yours to hold
Baby darling, I'm just a man
And love's just a game I'll never understand
She said, the ride is rough
And when you fall, you just get back up
Take the reins by the hand
And learn to crawl like a man
Brother if you can
You learn to crawl like a man, yeah
Take the reins like a man
If you can
You gotta lose boy, to learn to win
Life's just a game I'll never understand
Well the ride is rough
And when you fall, you just get back up
Take the reins by the hand
And learn to crawl like a man
Brother if you can
Learn to crawl like a man
