I'm takin' to leanin' these past few days, A little too heavy on my wakin' cane. Cuz I'm afraid she's swingin' my way, that wreckin' ball. Now with all my ducks in a row, With one pull, I can let 'em go. Not to lose, just to show, I could catch them all. But every man bears a burden, some beast by the horns That he hides from the world when he's young 'n' strong Lookin' over his shoulder Half-tethered and torn Still standing tall. Every year rolls on, like a runaway train Every bistro's stronger as the pendulum swings to and fro And on she goes That wrecking ball I just seen that Rock of Ages I just tell my Savior's hand. We danced underwater with my head on my shoulders She swore to never let me fall Was a time seemed so kindly If every bright-eyed girl could be more like you shelter me from that wrecking ball that wreckin' ball
