Lyrics
Another life but I still remember
A county fair in steamy September
In the Year of the Tiger, 19-something
I was broke and you were unbroken
A little joke's to keep it unspoken
Even when I knew that you were the last one
I broke a promise to myself
To ride the throttle 'til wheels came off
Burn out like a Molotov in the night sky
I broke a promise to myself
Made a couple to a brown eyed girl
Who rode with me through the mean ol' world
Never say die
Time flies when you're making babies
Do you miss your little black Mercedes?
Do you miss the girl you once had time to be?
When you said we had the same three wishes
I hope that you weren't being facetious
And I hope you still see fire inside of me
I broke a promise to myself
To ride the throttle 'til the wheels came off
Burn out like a Molotov in the night sky
I broke a promise to myself
Made a couple to a brown eyed girl
Who rode with me through the mean ol' world
Never say die
I broke a promise to myself
To ride the throttle 'til the wheels came off
Burn out like a Molotov in the night sky
I broke a promise to myself
Made a couple to a brown eyed girl
Who rode with me through the mean ol' world
Never say die
