Zac Brown Band - Lance's Song lyrics

rate me

Doing what you love has a high price to pay

Some put on a suit, but he ran the other way

Drums drown out the yuppies

And the one's who couldn't dream

Cause the freedom music gave him was worth more than anything

They don't know

What they got

Until it's gone

Like it or not

You live on love

You try to do what's right

We're all here waiting for our silver invitation

To our big band in the sky

Rollin down the windows

Trying hard to fight the sleep

Money's never much for a band in Tennessee

Another night of plain'

To a crowd with no ears

Wanna hear the songs they know

And fill their bellies full of beer

But they don't know

What they got

Until it's gone

Like it or not

You live on love

You try to do what's right

We're all here waiting for our silver invitation

To our big band in the sky

And when he closed his eyes

Fell into a dream that never dies

And when the thunder comes

You can hear his kick drum in the sky

Feel the rain

Fall from our eyes

Cause we don't know

What we got

Until it's gone

Like it or not

You live on love

You try to do what's right

For him there's no more waiting

Got his silver invitation

To do a little playing

For the big band in the sky
