Bet Your Life Songtext
von Pressing Strings

Aching for a place to get your foot in the door
Answers come in all shapes and sizes
Feeling mighty good tell into the abyss load it in
Set it up check it and let my mind shift
Strumming in love in music I trust well
I show it to the people who know it
Did you get the message we wanted to send?
It′s so hard to save your breath but it's so easy to spend
Every single second you know you′ll never get it again
Bet your life on it my friend
Dancin' round the town to these sidewalk sounds
Moving through the local saloons
Jack and Jameson have you met my friend Jim?


We've been talking from the moon since right about noon
Well I burn a ten on the so-called friends well
I know where they go when the light gets dim
Speaking in code to the tenders we owe
We all owe a whole lot but we just don′t know
Every single second you know you′ll never get it again
Bet your life on it my friend
Hear the earth come knocking
Here the infinite sound
Listen close to them talking
They're not playing around no more
Aching for a place to get a foot in the door while
Answers come in all shapes and sizes
