"Killing It" lyrics

"Killing It"

Staring at this setlist
I been here before
I'm sleepless and I might forget
The words to this encore
We've been from Baton Rouge to Boston
Chi-town down to Austin
Made friends with saints and convicts
They both'll keep you honest
They say it's three chords and the truth
And I'm the living proof
Don't ever trust the writing on the wall

We've had bad nights, dying under stage lights
No one left to blame fights
We could have called it quits
We've had girlfriends breaking up the band times
Spending all our last dimes
On the misses and the hits
But we're still killing it
Oh, yeah, we're still killing it
Oh, yeah, we're still killing it

Staring at this guest list
Some names I've seen before
I guess I'm getting jaded
I ain't impressed no more
We've been from London down to Rome
From Sydney back to home
But anytime I'm there too long
I'm jonesing for the road
They say it's only rock 'n roll
But man it shakes my soul
So you can keep your writing on the wall

We've had bad nights, dying under stage lights
No one left to blame fights
We could have called it quits
We've had girlfriends breaking up the band times
Spending all our last dimes
On the misses and the hits
But we're still killing it
Oh, yeah, we're still killing it
Oh, yeah, we're still killing it

30 years from now I hope I'll be
On a stage with my guitar when my heart
Finally drops the beat, yeah

We've had bad nights, dying under stage lights
No one left to blame fights
We could have called it quits
We would've been fine
We've had girlfriends breaking up the band times
Spending all our last dimes
On the misses and the hits
But we're still killing it
But we're still killing it
But we're still killing it
Oh, yeah, we're still killing it
Oh, yeah, we're still killing it
