I been livin' like a drunken sailor

Playin' in a rock 'n roll band
AFar from a failure, I feGel like a brand new maDn
DSmoking like a fiend and schemin'

Dealin' with the upper hand
AIt's been so long since I fGelt this good, God daDmn
GI'm finally sDtandin' tall
GI feel ID just can't fall
GYour love taDkes me to a higher placeA
GFor the first time, in a lDong time
GI'm done payin' my duDes
GFor the first time, in a lDong time
AI don't feel used
COhhhhhhh OhGhhh, OhhhDhhhhhh

Let's go out honky tonkin'
Dancing till the morning light
The time is now and this time I feel all right

I'm finally standin' tall
I feel I just can't fall
Your love takes me to a higher place

For the first time, in a long time
I don't stand accused
For the first time, in a long time
I feel brand new
Life's been kind, water tastes like wine
I feel so high like I'm on cloud nine
For the first time, in a long time
