"Drunken Soldier" lyrics

"Drunken Soldier"

Keep your head up
Try to listen to your heart
Be kind always no matter
We all grow up
And someday we'll say goodbye
So shine your light while you got one

Make the most of what you got
Don't waste time trying to be something you're not
Fill up your head, fill up your heart and take your shot
Don't waste time trying to be something you're not

Once proud, just once so take your shot
Don't waste time trying to be something you're not
Fill up your head, fill up your heart, 'cause that's all we got
Don't waste time trying to be something you're not

Through your window
That's one way to see the world
Step outside and look back into
Look and listen
And you decide what you believe
Shine your light while you got one

And make the most of what you've got
Don't waste time trying to be something you're not
Fill up your head, fill up your heart and take your shot
Don't waste time trying to be someone you're not

That's not a star, that's a satellite
Stepping out, stepping out
That's not a star, that's a satellite
That's not a star, that's a satellite
That's not a star, that's a satellite
