Jacob Banks Lyrics
Well, well
If this is love I'm back on board
Though I've ridden this bus before
Maybe it's more, maybe it's not
Oh, I'll know when we meet the wall
All I got is love and time
Oh, I'm just living by design
All I got is love and time
Yeah, I'm just living by design
Yeah
But I'm hoping, rooting for ya
Holding, saving for ya
I'm Evel Knievel
You know I like to take a chance
Maybe we'll fall, maybe we'll soar
Either way I'm getting closer to God
Mmh
I'll take the loss if it comes with joy
Then I could never lose the war
Yeah
All I got is love and time
Oh, I'm just living by design, yeah
All I got is love and time
Oh, I'm just living by design
But I'm hoping, rooting for ya
Holding, saving for ya
I'm Evel Knievel
You know I like to take a chance
All I got is love and time
I'm just living by design
All I got is love and time
I'm just living by design, ooh
If this is love I'm back on board
Though I've ridden this bus before
Maybe it's more, maybe it's not
Oh, I'll know when we meet the wall
All I got is love and time
Oh, I'm just living by design
Yeah, I'm just living by design
Yeah
But I'm hoping, rooting for ya
Holding, saving for ya
I'm Evel Knievel
You know I like to take a chance
Maybe we'll fall, maybe we'll soar
Either way I'm getting closer to God
Mmh
I'll take the loss if it comes with joy
Then I could never lose the war
Yeah
All I got is love and time
Oh, I'm just living by design, yeah
All I got is love and time
Oh, I'm just living by design
But I'm hoping, rooting for ya
Holding, saving for ya
I'm Evel Knievel
You know I like to take a chance
All I got is love and time
I'm just living by design
All I got is love and time
I'm just living by design, ooh

Mr. Banks, let me write some obvious things - you're wise and colorful artist with thin and more than deep feeling of this cruel and emotionless world. Other words, I just wanna say thank you, and God bless You.

In fact...this entire song with all its elements is 🔥🔥🔥
Smooth, soothing, nostalgic...the voice and instrument combination.
