Words / Music: T. Grose
Life's hard - no joke! Like a chain around your throat
Slave to the life out on the streets
You're down, but not out - you're tryin' to break out from here
But it calls you back again...
PRE-CHORUS
You say, 'Leave me be, I just need a little time.'
Yeah - time to die in a concrete grave!
You can say 'Just let me live my life.'
This is it - it's all you get! You only get...
CHORUS 1:
One shot, one shot at life - don't let it pass you by
One shot, one shot at life - you only get one shot at life...
No light with the dawn. No future, can go on - all lies!
Your life is in you hands
You want to die, you want to quit. Wake up - that's just a pile of s***!
If you want to break free, you've got to try...
REPEAT PRE-CHORUS
CHORUS 2:
One shot, one shot at life - don't let it pass you by
One shot, one shot at life - it's gone if you don't try
One shot, one shot at life - make a stand and reach for the sky
One shot, one shot at life - you only get one shot at life...
SOLO: Tim / Dale
REPEAT CHORUS 2 x 2
Life's hard - no joke! Like a chain around your throat
