Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I got one hand on the bottle
And one foot in the grave
It's been too long since I slept
But I ain't got time to waste
Three long days, boy, you better pray
'Cause when that light shines on you
Gonna wanna stay forever and a day
But it's the night that I belong to
[Verse 2]
Well, the clock keeps ticking
And your time is running out
Well, the clock is ticking
And your time is running, running, running, running
[Verse 3]
So I'm gonna live my life
Like it's my last damn night
'Cause when the clock strikes 12
We all gonna go to Hell
[Verse 4]
Said, I'm gonna live my life
Like it's my last damn night
I'm gonna live my life
Like it's my last damn night
[Verse 5]
Well, I'm 5 seconds closer
To living 6 feet deep
There's 7 steps to Heaven
But that stairways just to steep
Oh my, my, everybody died
But you know that I don't want to
You get a long life
Boy, you gonna cry
When the 9th one creeps up on you
[Verse 6]
Well, the clock keeps ticking
And your time is running out
Well, the clock keeps ticking
And your time is running, running, running, running
[Verse 7]
So I'm gonna live my life
Like it's my last damn night
'Cause when the clock strikes 12
We're all gonna go to Hell
[Verse 8]
Said, I'm gonna live my life
Like it's my last damn night
I'm gonna live my life
Like it's my last damn night
[Verse 9]
Well, the clock keeps ticking
Don't pretend that you ready to go
Well, its ticking down and slowly
And no love of God is gonna hold me
'Cause I'm running, running, running, running
[Verse 10]
So I'm gonna live my life
Like it's my last damn night
'Cause when the clock strikes 12
We're all gonna go to Hell
[Verse 11]
So I'm gonna live my life
Like it's my last damn night
'Cause when the clock strikes 12
We're all gonna go to Hell
[Verse 12]
Said, I'm gonna live my life
Like it's my last damn night
I'm gonna live my life
Like it's my last damn night
