He's got a big gold ring what says \\"Jesus Saves\\" And it's dented from the punch thrown at work that day When he smashed the metal locker where he kept his things After the big boss said, \\"You best be on your way\\"
Oh yeh So this life is sacrifice
Oh yeh Jumping trains just to survive
Well, his wife and kid are sleeping but he's still awake On his brain weighs the curse of thirty bills unpaid Gets up, lights a cigarette he's grown to hate Thinking if he can't sleep, how will he ever dream?
Yeh So this life is sacrifice
Oh yeh To a stranger's bottom line
Yeh I seen the light,... Uh-oh oh oh, uh-oh oh oh I's scared alive,...
Near to death,... Uh-oh oh oh, uh-oh oh oh I seen the light,... Scared alive.
Yeh So this life is sacrifice
Oh yeh They can't say I never tried
Yeh I seen the light,... Uh-oh oh oh, uh-oh oh oh I's scared alive,...
Near to death,... Uh-oh oh oh, uh-oh oh oh I seen the light,...
Scared alive,.... Uh-oh oh oh, uh-oh oh oh Near to death.
