[INTRO]
Sometimes
When the world is bringin' you down
Down to your very knees
Maybe you'll think
Well, maybe
Just maybe...
[1]
Maybe my heart won't make the distance
Maybe my heart won't see it through
I wasn't meant to run a marathon
30 second sprint, I'm through
And I wonder if
I should up and quit
[Chorus]
I'm rollin', rollin', rollin'
My heart 'round the bend
Rollin', Rollin', Rollin'
Life's kickin' me down again
Burnin', burnin', burnin'
My heart's on fire
Burnin', burnin', burnin'
Right down to the wire
Will I get through?
Oh I'll get through
[2]
I keep on draggin' up my past
You know I let it weigh me down
And when I'm pushin' back and forth
I'm only pushin' myself down
And I wonder if
I should up and quit
[CHORUS]
But I'm rollin', rollin', rollin'
My heart 'round the bend
Rollin', Rollin', Rollin'
Life's kickin' me down again
Burnin', burnin', burnin'
My heart's on fire
Burnin', burnin', burnin'
Right down to the wire
[BRIDGE]
Bone weary
And weary to my bones
I'm rollin'
With these punches that are thrown
I'm goin'
Where the wind it wants to blow
[OUTRO]
Rollin', rollin', rollin'
My heart 'round the bend
Rollin', rollin', rollin'
Life, you ain't kickin' me down again!
