seen a lot of good times in my life
times when everything went so right
seen a lot of things go wrong and i just don´t know why
i´ve seen a lot of good times m my life

had a bit of sadness in my life
friend of mine went down the other night
tried to sort it out but now i just don´t know why
i´ve had a bit of sadness in my life

you see i am a lonely, lonely, man
and what i got, i got together with my own two hands
and i wonder what am i gonna do to put things right
i´ve seen a lot of good times in my life

i´ve taken lots of chances in my life
now one of them has changed me overnight
i´ve seen a glimpse of the other side
the lights are much too bright
i´ve taken lots of chances with my life

i gotta do something with my life
gotta make a change and put up a fight
stand on my own two feet and do it right
i gotta do something with my life
