Borrowed Time

(album: Cornerstone - 1979)

Yeah yeah!
Don't look now, but here come the eightees!

I was so cool back in sixty-five
I had it made 'cause I understood what to do to survive
I had my car, and I made the scene
Didn't give a damn about no gasoline
They can go to hell
My friend we never thought about the world
And its realities
The promised land was ours
We were the Great Society

I'm so confused by the things I read, I need the truth
But the truth is, I don't know who to believe
The left say yes, and the right says no
I'm in between and the more I learn
Well, the less that I know
I got to make a show

Living high, living fine
Living high on borrowed time

Yes! No!
Yes! No!
No! Yes!
No! Yes!

Faith be with me now
I'm just a dreamer in a dreamland
Faith be with me now
I'm just a dreamer in a dreamland

'Cause we're
Living high
Living fine (You know I'm living fine)
Living high (Yes I'm living high)
On borrowed time (On borrowed time)
Living high (Whoohoo!)
Living fine (Ahhh!)
Living high
On Lake Shore Drive (Midnight ride)
Living high (We're living high)
On Leslie Lane (Let's go back and play it again!)
Living high (We're living high)
On Red Bud Trail (On Red Bud, Red Bud Trail!)
Living high
On Central Drive (He's on Central Drive!)
Living high (We're living, living high)
On Prestwick Drive (Catch me on Prestwick Drive!...)
Living high (...getting in and driving my Mercedes...)
Living fine (...up and down and up and down sh*t! I don't....)
