This Is My Life lyrics

[Verse 1]
I go down the beaten track
Along the river with an empty bank
At the end she said to me:
"Why are you here with the autumn leaves?"

[Chorus]
'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

[Verse 2]
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

[Chorus]
'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

[Bridge]
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 I'm my name
[Guitar Solo]

[Chorus]
This is my life, my friend
And I can't be no one else
This is my life, my friend
And I can't be no one else
