There I was sittin' pretty Tryin' to make the show Fifty miles from the city Hittin' overload Feelin' kinda greasy We'd been runnin' all night Broke down on the highway Man we looked a fright Six Strings, Nine Lives I'm walkin' the wire tonight Six Strings, Nine Lives It's all just part of tryin' to survive Someone get me somethin' Cause I don't feel well Last night was a heaven But tomorrow is hell Five hours to show time I gotta get it together Well I think I need my guitar To make me feel better Six Strings, Nine Lives I'm walkin' the wire tonight Six Strings, Nine Lives It's all just part of tryin' to survive Six Strings, Nine Lives I'm walkin' the wire tonight Six Strings, Nine Lives It's all just part of tryin' to survive When we hit the stage Can't you feel the rage The time is right For good rockin' tonight Six Strings, Nine Lives I'm walkin' the wire tonight Six Strings, Nine Lives It's all just part of tryin' to survive Six Strings, Nine Lives I'm walkin' the wire tonight Six Strings, Nine Lives It's all just part of tryin' to survive
