We Dared The Lightning

Mama said slow down

But I was goin' to fast to listen

Said what goes 'round comes around

But only time could get my attention

But as I look back now

Over advice we were given

I can't help wonderin how

It is that I'm still livin

I had some wild friends

We did some crazy things

We'd get some long late hours

We dared the lightnin'

We took it to the edge

Runnin' full speed ahead

We laid our lives on the line

We dared the lightnin'

Really blows my mind

I don't know how did I survive

And still I go back from time to time

Visit others by their grave site

Wish momma had lived to see

Now I have kids of my own

She'd be laughin' at me

But momma never cast a stone

I had some wild friends

We did some crazy things

We'd get some long late hours

We dared the lightnin'

We took it to the edge

Runnin' full speed ahead

We laid our lives on the line

We dared the lightnin'

It was like playin Russian Roulette

Always braggin' and bluffin'

Racin 'round and dodgin' bullets

We never stopped at nothin'

I had some wild friends

We did some crazy things

We'd get some long late hours

We dared the lightnin'

We took it to the edge

Runnin' full speed ahead

We laid our lives on the line

We dared the lightnin'

We laid our lives on the line

We dared the lightnin' [6x]
