Burning fast burning slow
As long as I burn bright
I don't care where He ends the show
I guess I'm glad I don't know
Glad I don't care
Ain't no reason to stop and stare
I keep trudging along
Keep my head held high
'Cept for the times when it hangs real low
I go toe to toe
With life fast as I can fly
And I'm out here all alone
No one to guide me home
I try to be alone in my mind but I'm
Misery and mischief prone tonight
Old enough I ain't young enough
To hide from this mortality
I know I'm gonna fight
I'm gonna have my very own hot August night
Sweat tears and blood
Rolling down my forehead thick as sweet Ozarks mud
I go toe to toe
With life fast as I can fly
And I'm out here all alone
No one to guide me home
I try to be alone in my mind but I'm
Misery and mischief prone tonight
Angels gonna come down
Rest their wings before they lift me off the ground
