My Way
Sherlock Brothers Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I'm ready to celebrate
Let myself loose, I'm gettin' lost in the haze
Here I go, don't know why
Walls reek down, I'm now a face in the crowd

I'm gonna make things my way
I'm gonna make things right
I'm gonna make things my way
I'm gonna make things right

Now I'm gonna go dancing for my money
Drink till I feel funny
Shaking all the troubles away
Now I'm gonna go dancing for my money
Drink till I feel funny
Shaking all the troubles away

Are you ready to be amazed?
Notice all that I am trying to say
Here I go, don't know why
You knock me down, but there's a reason to cry

I'm gonna make things my way
I'm gonna make things right
I'm gonna make things my way
I'm gonna make things right

Now I'm gonna go dancing for my money
Drink till I feel funny
Shaking all the troubles away
Now I'm gonna go dancing for my money
Drink till I feel funny
Shaking all the troubles away

Hey hey hey hey
Now I'm gonna go dancing for my money
Drink till I feel funny
Shaking all the troubles away

Now I'm gonna go dancing for my money
Drink till I feel funny
Shaking all the troubles away
Now I'm gonna go dancing for my money




Drink till I feel funny
Shaking all the troubles away
