Nothing to Lose

Salt and exhaust are foggin' up the sky
Pennies at my feet, well what will that buy?
Wayfaring stranger with no place to go
Load up the guitar and maybe we'll find a show

I'm just a kid playin old rock n roll cause it ain't worth singin if it don't got no soul
I may not have rhythm and I don't know the blues
But ya can't do wrong when you got nothin to lose
I'm just a kid playin old rock n roll, well if I can't have music what I'm I livin' for
I may not have rhythm and I don't know the blues
But ya can't do wrong when you got nothin to lose

Spotlight is on, well that's the moon in the sky
Glory days in darkness means that you gotta fight
Well up is down and left is right, it's hard to believe
When you're caught between the devil and the deep blue sea

When I was kid first a writin' a song, well I hadn't been singin' or playin' for long
I didn't have rhythm, didn't know 'bout the blues
But I wrote those words cause I had nothin to lose
Now that I'm grown and I've been through much more
All that time has done has made me bitter and sore
I keep my chin up and don't get down on the blues
Cause ya can't do wrong if ya got nothin to lose

Well I'm headin' down the highway leadin no place
Same old song and same familiar face
Followin' the footsteps of a long dead ghost
Living life without a care is easy for most

I'm just a kid playin old rock n roll cause it ain't worth singin if it don't got no soul
I may not have rhythm and I don't know the blues
But ya can't do wrong when you got nothin to lose
Now that I'm grown and I've been through much more
All that time has done has made me bitter and sore
I keep my chin up and don't get down on the blues
Cause I can't do wrong if I got nothin
Ya can't do wrong when you got nothin
No ya can't bring me down cause I got nothin to lose
