Lyrics
[Intro] Yeah! [Verse 1] Ridin' down this road Like I've ridden down a million I've run through every roadblock in this town I laughed at all the signs That say speed'll kill ya It took you to slow me down [Pre-Chorus] I've forgotten How to fly But I'll remember Before I die [Chorus] It's a crooked line I follow It's a rocky road I ride It's a bitter pill I swallow Just to keep you by my side Oh, I [Verse 2] Oh, I might sing some blues Like there just ain't no tomorrow 'Cause misery is always colorblind I've taken every remedy for ignorance and sorrow Something to cure this wicked mind [Pre-Chorus] And I've forgotten How to fly But I'll remember Before I die [Chorus] It's a crooked line I follow And a rocky road I ride It's a bitter pill I swallow Just to keep you by my side Just to keep you satisfied [Bridge] Wow! I work So hard [Pre-Chorus] And I've forgotten The reasons why And I'll remember Before I die [Chorus] It's a crooked line I follow It's a rocky road I ride It's a bitter pill I swallow Just to keep you by my side Just to keep you satisfied Just to keep you by my side Satisfied, satisfied It's a wicked world, baby [Verse 1] Ridin' down this road Like I've ridden down a million I've run through every roadblock in this town I laughed at all the signs That say speed'll kill ya It took you to slow me down [Outro] It took you to slow me down It took you to slow me down It took you to slow me down It took you to slow me down It took you to slow me down
