Trang 1It's My Life
This ain't a 1. _ for the
broken-hearted
No silent 2. for the
faith-departed
I ain't gonna be just a 3. in the
crowd
You're gonna hear my 4. _
When I shout it out loud
[Chorus:]
It's my 5.
It's now or never
I ain't gonna live 6
I just want to live while I'm alive
(It's my life)
My heart is like an 7. _ highway
Like Frankie said
I did it 8. _ way
I just wanna live while I'm 9.
It's my life
This is for the 10. _ who stood
their 11.
For Tommy and Gina who never backed

Luck ain't even lucky

[Chorus:]

Don't bend, don't break, baby,
don’t back 14. _
[Chorus:] 2x
'Cause it's my life!
