"This Is My Life" Lyrics

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
Now 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
Now 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)
Now 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
Now this is my life, my friend
