Taking a Chance

I knew somebody once
Who told me
To get myself
A proper job
'cause there ain't nobody ever wanna hear
An old man sing
You won't amount to anything

But I'm
Up here on this stage
And I'm
Singing into my old age
And I
I just got to say
Thank you
For taking as chance on me

I knew somebody once
Who hurt me
Too many times
For me to tell
Had me pushed so low
I raced for higher ground
But it didn't work out that well
Hell I almost fell

But I'm
Up here on this stage
And I'm
Doing things my way
And I
I just got to say
Thank you
For taking as chance on me
Taking a chance on me

You don't understand
How it feels for this old man
To have you listen to my stories
Let you know just who I am 'cause
I've been trapped behind this shadow
Far too long I'm in the spotlight now
Yeah I'm coming out

'cause I'm
Up here on this stage
And I'm
Doing things my way
And I
I just got to say
Thank you
For taking as chance on me
Taking a chance on me
Taking a chance on me
Taking a chance on me
Thank you!
