T.S.O.L. (TSOL): "One Shot Away" Lyrics

When I was young somebody once told me

You don't get what you want, you get what you need

All I needed was fortune, fame and glory

When I got it, it wasn't what it seemed

I woke up in a room that had no window

Sick as a dog no home and in the rain

Look at the fool too cool to stop and listen

He'd rather try to deal with his own pain

One shot away to meet your maker

One shot away no easy way out

One shot away and you'll leave everyone behind

One shot away no easy way out

Strungout

No easy way out

Lights out

No easy way out

It's not so easy to make it today

I'm here to tell you tomorrow's too late

One shot away to meet your maker

One shot away no easy way out

One shot away and you'll leave everyone behind

One shot away no easy way out

One shot away and you'll leave everyone behind

One shot away the easy way out
