Lisa likes brandy and the way it hits her lips
|
She's a rock 'n' roll survivor with pendulum hips
|
She's got deep brown eyes
|
That've seen it all
|
|
Working at a nightclub that was called The Avenue
|
The bar men used to call her "Little Lisa, Loney Tunes"
|
She went down on almost anyone
|
|
From the hard time living 'til the Chelsea days
|
From when her hair was sweet blonde 'til the day it turned gray
|
She said:
|
|
[Chorus]
|
L.I.F.E.G.O.E.S.O.N.
|
You've got more than money and sense, my friend
|
You've got heart and you go in your own way
|
L.I.F.E.G.O.E.S.O.N.
|
What you don't have now will come back again
|
You've got heart and you go in your own way
|
|
Some people wear their history like a map on their face
|
And Joey was an artist just living out of case
|
But his best word was his letters home
|
|
His standard works of fiction about imaginary success
|
The chorus girls in neon were his closest things to friends
|
But to a writer, the truth is no big deal
|
|
From the hard time living to the sleepless nights
|
And the black and blue body from the weekend fights
|
He'd say:
|
|
[Chorus]
|
L.I.F.E.G.O.E.S.O.N.
|
You've got more than money and sense, my friend
|
You've got heart and you go in your own way
|
L.I.F.E.G.O.E.S.O.N.
|
What you don't have now will come back again
|
You've got heart and you go in your own way
|
|
[Bridge]
|
On my last night on earth, I won't look to the sky
|
Just breathe in the air and blink in the light
|
On my last night on earth, I'll pay a high price
|
To have no regrets and be done with my life
|
|
[Chorus]
|
L.I.F.E.G.O.E.S.O.N.
|
You've got more than money and sense, my friend
|
You've got heart and you go in your own way
|
L.I.F.E.G.O.E.S.O.N.
|
What you don't have now will come back again
|
You've got heart and you go in your own way
|
[repeat]
