My Whole Life

I've worked my whole life to get ahead and survive

I'll tell you one thing that is true

I take it day to day as time flickers away

But I still won't give into you

She wants a different life, kids and to be a wife

Build a nest to call her own

But what I want out of life is to have my guitar by my side

And travel down these lonely roads

I've worked my whole life to get ahead and survive

I'll tell you one thing that is true

I take it day to day as time flickers away

But I still won't give into you

She wants a different life, kids and to be a wife

Build a nest to call her own

But what I want out of life is to have my guitar by my side

And travel through these lonely roads

And I don't want it

The simple kind of life

And I don't need it

All the things that you despise
