He has tasted good and evil
in your bedrooms and your bars.
And hes traded in tommorrow for today.
Runnin from his devils lord
And reachin for the stars.
Losein all he loves along the way.
But if this world keeps right on turnin
For the better or the worse.
And all he gets is older or around.
From the rockin of the cradle
To the rollin of the hearse.
The goin up was worth the comin down.
(repeat 2)
