I like walkin' in the park late at night
|
tryin' to run my motor down
|
everybody says I live a dangerous life
|
I've got to get ahead somehow
|
out here on the street just tryin' to get my own
|
don't tell me what you think you know
|
ooh, most people spend their time at home alone
|
just waitin' for a check that won't show
|
|
[Chorus:]
|
takin' chances
|
no risk, no gain
|
takin' chances
|
I really don't mind the pain
|
takin' chances
|
if you only knew
|
takin' chances
|
it's all for the love of you
|
|
I don't like to listen to what people say (uh-huh)
|
cause once you start you'll never stop
|
one advantage to doing things my own way
|
I'll always end up on top
|
|
[Chorus]
|
|
[Bridge:]
|
I've got to do it right, ooh I've got to
|
I've got to live my life the way I want to
|
I'm high up on a wire, don't wanna ever come down
|
and if I fall I've got to fly
|
|
[Chorus]
|
