L.I.F.E.G.O.E.S.O.N. (Album version)

likes Lisa 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 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:

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

got You've 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

standard His 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

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

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

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
