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
