the way
Bobs and Sounds Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Oh my dear here comes that train again
Maybe this time I should get on board
I'm gonna find a suitcase and I'll pay my debts
Watch me as I walk right out the door
I'll be on my way
To a better day I say it brought me down to fill your needs
I'll do what it takes to be set free
Listen honey you've lost your way again
Maybe this time I should let you go
I tried to help you but you're too far gone
So I guess I better let you know
That I'll be on my way
To a better day I say it brought me down to fill your needs
I'll do what it takes to be set free
All alone under the silver moon
Now I've got a chance to make a stand
Yeah I'll be on my way
To a better day I say it brought me down to fill your needs
I'll do what it takes to be set free
I'll be on my way
To a better day I say it brought me down to fill your needs
I'll do what it takes to be set free
I'll be on my way
To a better day I say it brought me down to fill your needs
I'll do what it takes to be set free
I'll be on my way
To a better day I say it brought me down to fill your needs
I'll do what it takes to be set free




I'll be on my way
I'll be on my way...

I’m sad this video isn’t longer. These three always seem to produce the best content together, and all of Mark’s videos with Bob and Wade tend to be my favorites.

Rohan Singh

These 3 are the most funniest trio there is

my favorite part of any mark video: “1…3…4…YES! YOU HAVE TO! YOU! HAVE! TO! GET FUUUUUCKED!” -mark to wade in monopoly

Emily

I agree, Mark's videos with friends are my favorites because they always make me laugh out loud and forget about my worries 😂😂

True, but my favorite has got to be the poly bridge 2 video, in spite of it being only Mark (with interaction from dumb livestream viewers)
