You see the world falling from the sky
And there's no time to kiss it goodbye
Because the devil's hanging under your feet
And you're walking barefoot in the street
Oh, I tell ya, everything is gonna be alright
You gotta live, because you're gonna die
When you were young; never thought you would care
And that you just second to spare
Enjoy your days while your weekend while
Never ended when I once was a child
There are people that'll change your life
And there are words that'll cut like a knife
It's up to you what you make worthwhile
You can be happy and learn how to smile
Oh, I tell ya, everything is gonna be alright
You gotta live, because you're gonna die
It's not an illusion
It isn't a dream
It's not like a movie
That you've already seen
It'll pass you by
In a- a blink of an eye
So you gotta live, because you're gonna die
You see the world falling from the sky
And you never get a second try
So play your hand the best that you can
And always try and be an honest man
Oh, I tell ya, you never know 'till you go out and try
You gotta live, because you're gonna die
Oh, I tell ya, everything is gonna be alright
You gotta live, because you're gonna die
You gotta live, because you're gonna die
