lyrics:

It's your life
Don't you let em tell you when to bat your eyes
You're the only one who's gonna sacrifice
Makes no difference if you're right or wrong

Take that ride
But I want your little sister by your side
Maybe little later we can all collide
Do our livin' like a rollin' stone

Time on me is wasted time
Time on me is wasted time
Time on me is wasted time
Time on me is wasted

[chorus]
Innocent smile
Runnin' free
Baby gun' give it like it used to be
Baby gun' give it like it used to be


Show your face
Livin' in the shadows like you got no name
Enough to make a little girly go insane
Be my guest to let it out tonight

But it's ok
I know all about the little games you play
Shakin' your apple right in my face
Only when you know that I'm a beggin' for a bite

Time on me is wasted time
Time on me is wasted time
Time on me is wasted time
Time on me is wasted

[chorus]

[bridge + guitar solo]

Time on me is wasted time
Time on me is wasted time
Time on me is wasted time
Time on me is wasted

I'm gunna get your momma
I'm gunna get your pa
I'm gunna tell everybody
Just what i saw.

So won't you show your face (show your face)
Your little apple shake (show your face)
I know the love you gave (show your face)
I know the love you take (show your face)

[chorus]
[chorus]
Baby gun' give it like it used to be
Baby gun' give it like it used to be
Baby gun' give it like it used to be
