Make Your Own Way - Cinderella

orn and raised in a one dog town

That never took a chance or a dare

The times kept a changin'

But it all passed 'em by

The prejudices in the air

Drove me to cocaine eyes

By the age of 15

Kept my mama walking the floor

But I had to draw the line

For the very last time

She kicked my ass out the door



It ain't always easy

When you're living hand to mouth

The more you put in

The less you get out

It ain't always easy

When you're living day to day

It ain't always easy

When you're tryin' to make your own way



Make your own way

When life's a little hard on you

Make yor own way

Nobody's gonna die for you



I remember rollin' dice on the run

Looking for a winning hand

We never stop to wonder

At the wonders passing by

Just searchin' for the promised land

We met a mean old man

Who dealt a dirty hand

Promised we could touch the sky

But the devil's his friend

He put the pen in my hand

Said you can pay me back

After you die



It ain't always easy

When you're living hand to mouth

The more you put in

The less you get out

It ain't always easy

When you're living day to day

It ain't always easy

When you're tryin' to make your own way



Make your own way

When life's a little hard on you

Make yor own way

Nobody's gonna die for you



Ah, ah, ah sometimes you gotta

Walk a straight line

Ah, ah, ah feel like I'm

Just doing time



Ooo, when life gets a little hard

You gotta gotta ooo make your own way

Sometimes you gotta make your

Own way, here we go

Ooo, sing it for 'em now

Make your own way

When life's a little hard on you

Make your own way

Nobody's gonna die for you
