Seven Days
Christian Kane Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I'm a little heavy waste boundin' down...
Got a zero in the bank
On my account
It's been a week since she's been home
That's seven days of on my own
That's my number baby,
Gonna lay my money down
My destination is dependin' on the right turn
The right field of dreams
Well I'm rollin'down the highway
Passin' on the hallway
Burnin' gasoline...

I'm seein' signs up ahead in lights
Vegas city limit lines
Tonight I'm gonna let it ride away
Well I'm puttin' down everything I own
On the mercy of these bones
Come on man, God bless these seven days!

Yeah well I sold my Chevy for a couple hundred bucks
I'm bettin' it all
And I'm countin' on Lady Luck,
Me and destiny have made a deal,
You can't shake these nerves of steel
So come on, fate, let's see where we end up

My temptation's already left me with a hand,
I can't even see
But I'm gonna play 'em, I'm gonna hold 'em
Like a box-car keep rollin'
These cards ain't got nothin' on me!

I'm seein' signs up ahead in lights
Vegas city limit lines
Tonight I'm gonna let it ride away
Well I'm puttin' down everything I own
On the mercy of these bones
Come on man, God bless these seven days!

Yeah well I'm gonna turn this table
Into a one man show
And I'm stackin' up my life
To play on just one roll,
Well seven's my best friend in town
Yes, ma'am, I'll have another round
Kiss these dice before I let 'em go!

I'm seein' signs up ahead in lights
Vegas city limit lines
Tonight I'm gonna let it ride away
Well I'm puttin' down everything I own
On the mercy of these bones
Come on man, God bless these seven days!
I'm puttin' down everything I own,
On the mercy of these bones




Come on man, God bless these seven days!
Oh God bless these seven days.

Line by Line Meaning

I'm a little heavy waste boundin' down...
I'm feeling weighed down and restricted as I move forward


Got a zero in the bank
I have no money in my account


On my account
On my bank account


It's been a week since she's been home
My partner has been away for a week


That's seven days of on my own
I've been alone for seven days


That's my number baby,
Seven is my lucky number


Gonna lay my money down
I'm going to place a bet


My destination is dependin' on the right turn
I'm uncertain about where I'm headed


The right field of dreams
The perfect opportunity or situation


Well I'm rollin'down the highway
I'm driving on the highway


Passin' on the hallway
I'm bypassing unimportant things


Burnin' gasoline...
Consuming a lot of fuel


I'm seein' signs up ahead in lights
I'm noticing billboard signs in the distance


Vegas city limit lines
I've reached the border of Las Vegas


Tonight I'm gonna let it ride away
I'm going to take a chance and let it be


Well I'm puttin' down everything I own
I'm risking my entire fortune


On the mercy of these bones
I'm relying on chance and fate


Come on man, God bless these seven days!
I hope for success in my endeavors


Yeah well I sold my Chevy for a couple hundred bucks
I sold my car for some money


I'm bettin' it all
I'm risking everything I have


And I'm countin' on Lady Luck,
I'm relying on chance to win


Me and destiny have made a deal,
I've surrendered to the fate that awaits me


You can't shake these nerves of steel
I'm very confident in my abilities


So come on, fate, let's see where we end up
I'm ready to accept whatever fate has in store for me


My temptation's already left me with a hand,
I've already been dealt a bad hand


I can't even see
I'm unable to make out my cards


But I'm gonna play 'em, I'm gonna hold 'em
I'm still going to participate in the game


Like a box-car keep rollin'
I'm going to keep going regardless of what happens


These cards ain't got nothin' on me!
I'm not afraid of the cards


Yeah well I'm gonna turn this table
I'm going to change my fortune


Into a one man show
I'm going to be the only one to succeed


And I'm stackin' up my life
I'm betting everything I have


To play on just one roll,
I'm only going to take one chance


Well seven's my best friend in town
Seven is my lucky number


Yes, ma'am, I'll have another round
I'm asking for another drink


Kiss these dice before I let 'em go!
I'm ready to act


Oh God bless these seven days.
I hope for success in all my endeavors
