I go down the beaten track
Along the river with an empty bank
At the end she said to me
Why are you here with the autumn leaves
'Cause this is my life my friend
And this is my time to stand
Now this is my life my friend
And I can't be no one else
I'm done tipping on my toes
Strike an iron and attack my soul
Misty moon you're gonna see
I've got your blues to get on my feet
'Cause this is my life my friend
And this is my time to stand
Now this is my life my friend
And I can't be no one else
I don't wanna run I don't wanna fight
I don't wanna hide I just wanna stay free
To be me
I don't wanna win I don't wanna lose
I don't wanna play I just wanna remember
Oh my name
'Cause this is my life my friend
And this is my time to stand
Ohh
Oh oh oh oh oh ooh
And this is my life my friend
And I can't be no one else
'Cause this is my life my friend
And I can't be no one else
'Cause this is my life my friend
