๐ Lyrics
I was born at the turn of the century
Lucky to be here at all
Grew up way down in Mississippi
When I heard Robert Johnson call
I've seen a lot and I've done a lot
Too young to lay down in that hole
I'm just trying to fly high and not to die
Before I'm old
Breaking rocks on a chain gang
Up until the sun went down
Too many souls are buried
In the dirt poor delta ground
I've seen a lot and I've done a lot
Just too young to lay down in that hole
I'm just trying to fly high and not to die
Before I'm old
I put lightning back in bottles
Poke rattlesnakes just for fun
People say I got an old soul
And I ain't even 21
But I've seen a lot and I've done a lot
Just ain't ready for that hole
No, I ain't
I'm just trying to fly high and not to die
I'm just trying to fly high and not to die
I'm just trying to fly high and not to die
Before I'm old
Lucky to be here at all
Grew up way down in Mississippi
When I heard Robert Johnson call
I've seen a lot and I've done a lot
Too young to lay down in that hole
I'm just trying to fly high and not to die
Before I'm old
Breaking rocks on a chain gang
Up until the sun went down
Too many souls are buried
In the dirt poor delta ground
I've seen a lot and I've done a lot
Just too young to lay down in that hole
I'm just trying to fly high and not to die
Before I'm old
I put lightning back in bottles
Poke rattlesnakes just for fun
People say I got an old soul
And I ain't even 21
But I've seen a lot and I've done a lot
Just ain't ready for that hole
No, I ain't
I'm just trying to fly high and not to die
I'm just trying to fly high and not to die
I'm just trying to fly high and not to die
Before I'm old
