Bob Seger - Lock & Load Lyrics
Words and music by bob seger, craig frost, tim mitchellWell I wish I had a nickelFor every time I fell and blamed somebody elseId give a ton of money to the ones Ive hurtAnd Id still be sittin pretty wellIve spent years losin touch of whats right and whats realCaught up in these missions of my ownAnd youre tellin me you think Ive done so damn wellWhile were sittin here a thousand miles from homeTheres a hole in your wisdom, a hole in your skyTwo holes in your head where the lights supposed to get byTime to lock and loadTime to get controlTime to search the soulAnd start againSo many times Ive seen chances disappearI hesitate and watch them slip awayLike the time I fail to spend with the ones I loveAnd its gone as sure as yesterdayAll these users and fakers, big time takersManipulating everyone they seeI get caught up in their schemes and their useless dreamsAnd the only one I have to blame is meI get turned `round and twisted, pulled left and rightI can see where Im goin, but I cant see the lightTime to lock and loadCome in from the coldTake a different roadAnd start againI can sit here, in the back half of my lifeAnd wonder when the other shoe will fallOr I can stand up, point myself homeAnd see if Ive learned anything at allAnything at allMediocrity is easy, the good things take timeThe great need commitment, right down the lineTime to lock and loadCome in from the coldPay these debts I oweAnd start againIve been down this roadIve seen things get oldTime to get controlAnd start it all againTime to lock and loadTime to get controlTime to search the soulAnd start againIve been down this roadIve seen things get oldStand up, get boldAnd start it all againTime to lock and load
