Testify Lyrics

Heading down a highway I'm a living cliché

You'd think I'd know better now my hair's gone grey

Shirking sad dancers in need of a twirl

I'm not looking for a wife just a sound out girl

The one before the last stole my mind

I'm gonna get it back while I still got time

To that I will testify

Hear me testify

She set my heart beating way too fast

On my knees pleading how long can I last

Dressing like a young man in a punk rock shirt

While the years pile upon me like graveyard dirt

My Daddy didn't raise his pride and joy

To be nobody's whipping boy

To that I will testify

Hear me testify

I'm gonna testify

If you wait too long life will pass you by

What will you do when love spits in your eye

What will it take for you to understand

There is no truth in a one night stand

It's all right to have some fun with anyone willing

It's all right to live in sin as long as you let love in

Hate to find myself in a hotel room

Perfume on the pillow good girl gone

Painting on the wall reminds me of home

Memories of life there keep me going

When I saw my folks die I learned life is short

So I live every day for what it's worth

To that I will testify

Hear me testify

I'm gonna testify

You got one life try to live it right

Don't you hurt no-one it'll be all right

As long as you testify
