The Way I Wanna Go Songtext

The Way I Wanna Go Songtext
I′m a strange kind of thunder
I'm a different kind of storm
Hellbent and hardheaded
Since the day that I was born
No, there′s no water deep enough
To drown the fire inside
It might make it hard to love me
But I hope I'm worth the ride
And I'll go on
Like a stone
I′ll be holding ground right here
But when I′m gone
Lay me down with sunburn on my face
Talk about how I never act my age
Still writin' when they try to turn the page
That′s the way I wanna go
Out swingin' with nothin′ left to prove
A leather jacket and fresh dirt on my boots
And a kiss from lips I know
That's the way I wanna go
I got scars across my knuckles
Just like my old man′s
A couple scuffs on my belt buckle
From the last time that I danced
Just wanna know I worked and tried enough
I told the truth, I cried enough
Spoke my mind and laughed enough
But when enough's enough
Lay me down with sun burn on my face
Talk about how I never act my age
Still writin' when they try to turn the page
That′s the way I wanna go
Out swingin′ with nothin' left to prove
A leather jacket and fresh dirt on my boots
And a kiss from lips I know
That′s the way I wanna go, yeah
And I'll go on
Like a song
That you smile and sing along
With every time that it comes on
And it goes
Lay me down with sunburn on my face
Talk about how I never act my age
Still writin′ when they try to turn the page
That's the way I wanna go
Out swingin′ with nothin' left to prove
A leather jacket and fresh dirt on my boots
And a kiss from lips I know
That's the way I wanna go
That′s the way I wanna go
That′s the way I wanna go
That's the way I wanna go
Let her go, boys
Yeah, that′s the way I wanna go
Yeah
Yeah, that's the way I wanna go
That′s the way, the way I wanna go
I'm a different kind of storm
Hellbent and hardheaded
Since the day that I was born
No, there′s no water deep enough
To drown the fire inside
It might make it hard to love me
But I hope I'm worth the ride
And I'll go on
Like a stone
I′ll be holding ground right here
But when I′m gone
Lay me down with sunburn on my face
Talk about how I never act my age
Still writin' when they try to turn the page
That′s the way I wanna go
Out swingin' with nothin′ left to prove
A leather jacket and fresh dirt on my boots
And a kiss from lips I know
That's the way I wanna go
I got scars across my knuckles
Just like my old man′s
A couple scuffs on my belt buckle
From the last time that I danced
Just wanna know I worked and tried enough
I told the truth, I cried enough
Spoke my mind and laughed enough
But when enough's enough
Lay me down with sun burn on my face
Talk about how I never act my age
Still writin' when they try to turn the page
That′s the way I wanna go
Out swingin′ with nothin' left to prove
A leather jacket and fresh dirt on my boots
And a kiss from lips I know
That′s the way I wanna go, yeah
And I'll go on
Like a song
That you smile and sing along
With every time that it comes on
And it goes
Lay me down with sunburn on my face
Talk about how I never act my age
Still writin′ when they try to turn the page
That's the way I wanna go
Out swingin′ with nothin' left to prove
A leather jacket and fresh dirt on my boots
And a kiss from lips I know
That's the way I wanna go
That′s the way I wanna go
That′s the way I wanna go
That's the way I wanna go
Let her go, boys
Yeah, that′s the way I wanna go
Yeah
Yeah, that's the way I wanna go
That′s the way, the way I wanna go
