I'm Gonna Live My Life



Download


I've just decided that I'm gonna live my life
It makes you wonder what I've been doing all this time
I'm not a puppet, you cannot rub it, I'm gonna take back what is mine
Butt your nose out I don't wanna hear what you say 'cos I gotta go my own way and...

Live my life free of danger
Roll the dice with some old stranger
Gonna live my life and I gotta live it well
If I take the wrong turn then, oh, hell

Only Rhino knows how I truly feel
Gotta seek legal advice and quit this record deal
It's far too hard to learn a new chord or melody
I'll keep living my life and doing as I please, please let me...

Live my life free of danger
Roll the dice with some old stranger
Gonna live my life and I gotta live it well
If I take the wrong turn then...
Live my life and live it faster
I'll be the lord, oracle and master
Gonna live my life and I gotta live it hard
If I don't meet you in the next one I'll send you a postcard

People say they get sick of hearing the same old shit
And they ask what did they ever do to deserve this?
I've been rocking around for too long, I'm far too old to learn a new song
Who you think I am - Jon Bon? Bon, Bon, Jon, I'll...

Live my life free of danger
Roll the dice with some old stranger
Gonna live my life and I gotta live it well
If I take the wrong turn then...
Live my life and live it faster
I'll be the lord, oracle and master
Gonna live my life and I gotta live it hard
If I don't meet you in the next one I'll send you a postcard

Release notes:

All words & music by Tico Jnr.

'Sure, I can be inspired by the greats, too'. Tico Jnr. bellows, somewhat defiantly. Clever lyrics and tremendous guitar ensures this is a timeless classic.

'For all those who have decided they're going to live their life, I have to wonder, what have you been doing up until now?' Rhetorical or not, that is a chuffing good question, Tic'.

During an interview elsewhere in the world, it was sensationally revealed that this wonder had started off as a country sounding track (hence the ridiculously good lo-fi outro), but 'the album had too many of them', so Tico Jnr. turned it into a rock anthem. Well done!
