Borrowed Time Lyrics

Tell the truth, shame the devil 
He's gonna fool you if he can 
I'm telling you it's gonna be double 
Better leave this gambling man

You've tried and tried 
Mama I've lied and lied
It don't matter what you do
I just can't be satisfied 
I want to be free, that's my only crime
Loving you on borrowed time
Loving you on borrowed time 

You can't stop what's already coming
I thought you'd know by now 
Can't you see it's sure to be trouble
You know what I'm talking about 

You've tried and tried 
Mama I've lied and lied
It don't matter what you do
I just can't be satisfied 
I want to be free, that's my only crime
Loving you on borrowed time 
Loving you on borrowed time

 Well this game it don't mean nothing 
We're just rolling in the tide 
Yes it's true that I've been struggling 
I'll never leave this old world alive 

You've tried and tried 
Mama I've lied and lied
It don't matter what you do
I just can't be satisfied 
I want to be free, that's my only crime
Loving you on borrowed time 
Loving you on borrowed time
