In My Lifetime

Hey boy, you got the address
on the street of unknowns.
Big man smokin’ on a cigar,
dealin’ on the telephone.
Hey boy, look out for flim-flam
if you wanna go real far.
Been there, and I believe
you got to be what you are.

In My Lifetime.
In My Lifetime.

Hey boy, you look like a million.
Hey now, show ’em what you got.
Hey boy, what you got to run from?
I’ll teach you all that I forgot.

In My Lifetime.
In My Lifetime.

Hey boy, when you write a rock tune,
you give up a piece of your soul.
Stay boy underneath a rockin’ moon;
try before you get too old.
Hooray, got yourself a road gig;
any gig’s gonna be fine.
Okay, you gave your real life,
and I know why.

In My Lifetime,
I have been there.
I have dreamed it
In My Lifetime.
