Lyrics
Live Or Die
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Daddy told me that his daddy said his daddy said, "Son,
Don't be going down with any bullets left in your gun"
He looked me in the eye, said, "Boy, make up your mind"
Live or die—grab it by the horns and baby take that ride
Live or die—give it up or give it everything inside
Fall of fly—won't do a bit of good of asking why
There's only two choices in life—live or die
I just wanna go out going hundred miles a minute, oh
Take every second of this life and spend all I can in it
No, I ain't got time to sit and bitch and whine
Live or die—grab it by the horns and baby take that ride
Live or die—give it up or give it everything inside
Fall of fly—won't do a bit of good of asking why
There's only two choices in life—live or die....
Daddy told me that his daddy said his daddy said, "Son,
Don't be going down with any bullets left in your gun"
He said, now
Live or die—grab it by the horns and baby take that ride
Live or die—give it up or give it everything inside
Fall of fly—won't do a bit of good of asking why
There's only two choices in life—live or die
(die)—never let a minute be a wasted time
Live or die—use it or lose it, make up your mind
Fall or fly—get on board or get left behind
There's only two choices in life—live or die
Oh now, live or die
(die)
(die) Oh now, live or die
(die) Now, live or die
(die) There's only two choices in life
(die)
There's only two choices in life....
