Free Fall Songtext
von Montgomery Gentry

I slept straight through to eight a. m.
That same old lame alarm clock excuse just ain′t gonna work again
I light a Marlboro for breakfast
On my way out the door
That's the third day this month I had one too many the night before
And judging from the past, it won′t be the last

It's a free fall when your back's against the wall
When you hit rock bottom and the bottom drops out
How′s a man supposed to stand tall
Well, the high life ain′t my life
I can't walk a line and I damn sure ain′t gonna crawl
Just living in a free fall


With a shovel in my hand and a hammer in my head
Right about now I can think of a thousand things I'd rather do instead
But I dig in this hole for my dignity
I think I finally come to understand working for the man ain′t working for me
I can only take so much
My only way is up

From a free fall when your back's against the wall
When you hit rock bottom and the bottom drops out
How′s a man supposed to stand tall
Well, the high life ain't my life
I can't walk a line and I damn sure ain′t gonna crawl
Living in a free fall

It′s a free fall when your back's against the wall
When you hit rock bottom and the bottom drops out
How′s a man supposed to stand tall
Well, the high life ain't my life
I can′t walk a line and I damn sure ain't gonna crawl
Just living in a free fall

Free fall
