[00:10.72]Lyrics for Album: Come On, Come On
[00:14.88]I took a walk in the rain one day on the wrong side of the tracks
[00:21.07]I stood on the rails till I saw that train
[00:24.84]Just to see how my heart would react
[00:28.41]Now some people say that you shouldn't tempt fate
[00:32.31]And for them I would not disagree
[00:35.50]But I never learned nothing from playing it safe
[00:38.18]I say fate should not tempt me
[02:56.76][02:21.61][01:38.99][01:24.34][00:56.77][00:41.93]
[00:41.98]I take my chances, I don't mind working without a net
[02:43.33][02:29.14][01:32.08][00:48.88]I take my chances, I take my chances every chance I get
[00:57.79]I sat alone in the dark one night, tuning in by remote
[01:04.13]I found a preacher who spoke of the light but there was brimstone in his throat
[01:11.17]He'd show me the way according to him in return for my personal check
[01:18.63]I flipped my channel back to CNN and I lit another cigarette
[01:24.53]I take my chances, forgiveness doesn't come with a debt
[01:54.98]I've crossed lines of words and wire and both have cut me deep
[02:01.14]I've been frozen out and I've been on fire and the tears are mine to weep
[02:08.32]Now I can cry until I laugh and laugh until I cry
[02:15.71]So cut the deck right in half, I'll play from either side
[02:21.98]I take my chances, I pay my dollar and I place my bet
[02:35.91]I take my chances, I don't cling to remorse or regret
[03:03.55][02:50.21]I take my chances
