Lyrics
[Verse 1]
You keep barrelin' on and you don't look back
Your mind is gone and you're losing track of who you wanna be
And think you're free (And think you're free)
[Verse 2]
When you still want more and you've done it all
You're kickin' doors and climbin' walls
You've gone far enough
You need to straighten up
(You need to straighten up)
[Verse 3]
Girl, you came along and just in time
To show me the way
While I was wadin' through my rough and rowdy days
(Rough and rowdy days)
[Verse 4]
How can you know what life's about
When upside down is inside out?
You know you need some help
You can't help yourself (You can't help yourself)
[Verse 5]
Girl, you came along and just in time
To show me the way
While I was wadin' through my rough and rowdy days
(Rough and rowdy days)
[Verse 6]
Girl, you came along and just in time
To show me the way
While I was wadin' through my rough and rowdy days
(Rough and rowdy days)
