I'd go Down the beaten track Long the river With an empty bag At the end She said to me Why are you here With the autumn leaves? Cause this is my life, my friend And this is my time to stand Now this is my life, my friend And I can't be No one else I'm done Tipping on my toes Striking iron And attack my soul Misty moon You're gonna see I've got your blues To get on my feet Cause this is my life, my friend And this is my time to stand Now this is my life, my friend And I can't be No one else I don't wanna run I don't wanna fight I don't wanna hide I just wanna stay free To be me I don't wanna win I don't wanna lose I don't wanna play I just wanna remember My name Cause this is my life, my friend And this is my time to stand Now this is my life, my friend And I can't be No one else Cause this is my life, my friend And this is my time to stand Now this is my life, my friend And I can't be No one else This is my life, my friend
