Roger Daltrey - Before My Time Is Up lyrics

Before the gods read my lifelong sentence Before I get my share Before I walk alone Before they take away my last temptation Before my heart's deprived Before they call my name On the back fences of my dream line I never lost my mind I gave it all I had To get away with the whole damn big bang For the right reasons For what you can't take back Until the drums stop beating Until the crossroads burn out I ain't a man until I've done it all Before my time is up Ooh, I'll hang my name On every trial I'm due for And even if I can't get justice I'll take you down to hell Before my time is up I'll leave no stone unturned I won't regret my actions And even if my last words fail me I'll be a better man Before my time is up I believe that the road goes somewhere Beyond the empty eyes Beyond the wasted land When it all fades away to nothing I wanna know I tried To take a real hard stand I gotta laugh at the whole damn big bang I've got to cry sometimes I've got to love somebody Before they read my lifelong sentence Before I get my share Before I go alone Until the drums stop beating To where the crossroads burn out I ain't a man until I've done it all Before my time is up Ooh, I'll hang my name On every trial I'm due for And even if I can't get justice I'll take you down to hell Before my time is up I'll leave no stone unturned I won't regret my actions And even if my last words fail me I'll be a better man Before my time is Time is Time is up Ooh, and even if my last words fail me I'll be a better man Before my time is up Before, before my time is up Before, before my time is up Before, before my time is up Before my time is up Before my time is up Before my time is up Before my time is up Before, before
