Johnny Paycheck I'm a Survivor (1996)

Текст песни "Johnny Paycheck — I'm a Survivor (1996)"

They say I'm a legend so I try to live up to the name
But I'm just not that good
At dealing with fortune and fame
I've made mistakes
More than I care to recall
But one way or another
I've always managed to get over the fall

'Cause I'm a survivor
I've paid my dues
I wrote the book on hard knocks
And paved that road with my boots
I've been featured on the six o'clock news
Hey I'm a survivor
Win, draw or lose

Sometimes I wonder how I've managed to live through it all
I made an art out of living with my back to the wall
The records will show that I had my share of regrets
But as long as I'm breathing
You ain't heard the last of old John yet

Cause I'm a survivor
I'm just like you
Doing the best with the hand that I drew
Dragging the part I couldn't refuse
Yes I'm a survivor
Win, draw or lose
Yes I'm a survivor
I'm a survivor
I'm a survivor
Hey I'm a survivor
I'm a survivor
I'm a survivor.
