Nothing To Lose

(album: Wicked Ways - 2009)

I left my home in the sweet sunshine
Arrived in a cold rain on a November night
I opened the door to a run down room
That's when it hit me I've got nothing to lose

Nothing to lose
Nothing to lose but everything to gain

Without a friend around I walk these lonely streets
Looking out for a good time somewhere to rest my feet
I stumbled in to a nightclub where this old man played the blues
He punched me right in the face when he sang
Boy you've got nothing to lose

Nothing to lose
Nothing to lose but everything to gain

So here I am on the bandstand I found my way to the the spotlights
A pretty girl on the dance floor she's watching me all night
She spoke to me with them blue eyes and her message came through
After the show she grabbed me by the hand
Said we've got nothing to lose

Nothing to lose
Nothing to lose but everything to gain

If you start from nowhere then you've got every road to choose
I went my own way like we all should do
