| On the seventh hour of the seventh day
|
| The seventh son was looking for a seventh stage get away
|
| The word came down from a blinding light
|
| You got one chance, baby, baby, you better do it right
|
| I was driving down on the 101
|
| It was late at night and I was thinking 'bout the things I’d done
|
| All of my regrets and, baby, all of my fears
|
| I was slipping the car from gear to gear to gear
|
| Hey hey hey
|
| God bless the child, God bless his soul
|
| God perish the idea that he’ll die before he’s old
|
| You gotta be cool, you got to behave
|
| And there’ll be time for that when I’m lying in my grave
|
| You gotta watch your step, or you’ll lose your way
|
| Take heed of your elders and do everything they say
|
| Watch out for the man, the man who tolls the bells
|
| But if I fear for the devil and I fear for myself
|
| Then I’m gonna have to fear for everybody else
|
| Oh yeah, I’m gonna fly (sha la la la la mamma yeah)
|
| I’m gonna live until the day I die
|
| Ain’t got time to wonder why
|
| I’m gonna live until the day I die
|
| Sha la la la mama yeah (repeat) |
