I go down the beaten track

Along the river with an empty bag

At the end she said to me Why are you here with the autumn leaves

Cause this is my life my friend and this is my time to stand

Cause this is my life my friend and I can't be no one else

I'm done tipping on my toes

Strike an iron and attack my soul

Misty moon you're gonna see

I've got you blues to get on my feet

Cause this is my life my friend and this is my time to stand

Cause this is my life my friend and I can't be no one else

I don't wanna run I don't wanna fight

I don't wanna hide I just wanna stay free to be me

I don't wanna win I don't wanna lose

I don't wanna play I just wanna remember oh my name

Cause this is my life my friend and this is my time to stand

Oh ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh

（Cause this is my life my friend and this is my time to stand）

Cause this is my life my friend and I can't be no one else

Cause this is my life my friend and I can't be no one else

Cause this is my life my friend
