I've had choices

Since the day that I was born

There were voices

That told me right from wrong

If I had listened

I wouldn't be here today

Livin' and dyin'

With the choices I've made

I was tempted

At an early age I found

That I liked drinkin'

No, I never turned it down

There were loved ones

But I chased them all away

Now I'm livin' and dyin'

With the choices I've made

I've had choices

Since the day that I was born

(There were) I heard voices

That told me right from wrong

If I had listened

No, I wouldn't be here today

Livin' and dyin'

With the choices I've made

I'm still payin'

For the things that I have done

If I could turn back

Oh, Lord I would run

But I'm still losin'

At this game of life I play

Now I'm livin' and dyin'

With the choices I've made

I had choices

Since the day that I was born

There were voices

That told me right from wrong

If I had listened

I wouldn't be here today

Livin' and dyin'

With the choices I made

Livin' and dyin'

With the choices that I've made
