Liven up, loose the chains It's hard to lie down in the driving rain I lost a job I thought I had My friends say, maybe that ain't so bad You gotta lose boy, to learn to win Life's just a game I'll never understand But the ride is rough And when you fall, you better get back up Take the reins by the hand And learn to fall like a man My baby called from the south of France And said, I know what you want buddy But there ain't no chance I finally found my pot of gold And what you hide mine, is yours to hold Baby darling, I'm just a man And love's just a game I'll never understand She said, the ride is rough And when you fall, you just get back up Take the reins by the hand And learn to crawl like a man Brother if you can You learn to crawl like a man, yeah Take the reins like a man If you can ( Solo ) You gotta lose boy, to learn to win Life's just a game I'll never understand Well the ride is rough And when you fall, you just get back up Take the reins by the hand And learn to crawl like a man Brother if you can Learn to crawl like a man
