Don’t think the life that we’re living is easy

We travel round

Our feet don’t touch the ground

I’d like to believe after all this I’d end up a millionaire

But not that’s where it’s at

Anyway it don’t work like that

Where’s my silver lining

I’ve been trying.. been trying to see

But everyday comes shining.. hey shine your light

Way down on me

Now don’t get me wrong it’s the life that I asked for

I’m a lucky man

Yes I understand

It’s just that sometimes it’s so fast I can’t even catch up to myself

Goodbye bowling green

Hello abilene

Shine your light.. oh that’s right

Shine your light

Outside my window the rooster is crowing

Oh what can he do

I guess he’s lonely too

Or maybe he’s preaching out loud all the truth I already know

Life ain’t never fair

It’s like that everywhere

And that’s right

Oh right
