Too often now these days bad news just has a way of coming 'round,
My folks and friends I've met more and more they get taken down
I don't guess I'm different than the rest, but somehow even the best are going under
'Cause life itself is dangerous makes the rest of us just have to wonder
Dodgin' bullets, defying time
Sometimes I feel just like a number waiting in line
I just want to live my life and leave with no regrets
Until that day I'll go my way, dodgin' bullets

I'm fortunate I guess feel like I've been blessed up 'til now,
The reason for it all who will stand or fall can't say how,
They’re for the grace of God I go and no one really knows what comes tomorrow,
'Cause life itself is dangerous sometimes brings us joy sometimes
Dodgin' bullets, defying time
Sometimes I feel just like a number waiting in line
I just want to live my life and leave with no regrets
Until that day I'll go my way, dodgin' bullets
Too often now these days, bad news just has a way of coming 'round
