(Verse 1)
Lights, camera, action. We pick our story up with our
hero on the
run. I'm gonna make my bed on the railroad tracks
tonight. And though they say,
"Oh, that boy is insane!" I've got the heart and fury
of a hurricane. I'm gonna
stand my ground when the freight train comes tonight.
We've taken casualties
but we're still alive.
(Chorus)
Oh, oh. Go on, go on, go on, go on and call
me soft. Go on, go on, go on, go on and write me off.
But if you try to find a
way of leading me this road, then I will find a way to
let you go.
(Verse
2)
This isn't your choice. I'll never leave it up to you,
'cause you're not
stopping me from doing what I want to. And though they
say, "Oh, that boy is
long gone!" I'm gonna bang my drum, gonna sing my song.
I'm gonna stand my
ground when the big guns fire tonight. I've take
casualties but I'm still
alive.
(Repeat Chorus)
