Lance's Song Lyrics

Doing what you love has a high price to pay
Some put on a suit, but he ran the other way
Drums drown out the yuppies
And the ones who couldn't dream
'Cause the freedom music gave him was worth more than anythingThey don't know
What they got
Until it's gone
Like it or not
You live on love
You try to do what's right
We're all here waiting for our silver invitation
To the big band in the skyRollin' down the windows
Trying hard to fight the sleep
Money's never much for a band in Tennessee
Another night of playin'
To a crowd with no ears
Wanna hear the songs they know
And fill their bellies full of beerBut they don't know

What they got
Until it's gone
Like it or not
You live on love
You try to do what's right
We're all here waiting for our silver invitation
To the big band in the skyAnd when he closed his eyes
Fell into a dream that never dies
And when the thunder comes
You can hear his kick drum in the sky
Feel the rain
Fall from our eyes'Cause we don't know
What we got
Until it's gone
Like it or not
You live on love
You try to do what's right
For him there's no more waiting
Got his silver invitation
To do a little playing
For the big band in the sky
