Hey boy, you got the address on the street of unknowns Big man, smokin' on a cigar, dealing on the telephone Hey, boy look out for flim flam if you wanna go real far I've been there, and I believe you got to be what you are In my lifetime In my lifetime Hey boy, you look like a million Hey now, show 'em what you got Hey boy, what you got to run from I'll teach you all that I forgot In my lifetime In my lifetime Hey boy, when you write a rock tune you give up a piece of your soul Stay boy, underneath the rockin' moon try before you get to old Hooray, you got yourself a road gig any gig's gonna be fine Okay, you gave up your real life and I know why In my lifetime I have been there I have dreamed it In my lifetime LIFE In my TIME In my lifetime
