(Hawkins Deforest)
Some folks say I'm a drifter
Not a rock, but a rolling stone
But I perceive this life we live is way too short
I wanna live it till I'm gone
I wanna stand high on a mountain
With my back up against the wind
And spend the day thinking about tomorrow
Not thinking about where I've already been
I wanna live every moment like my last day
And see the seven wonders before it's too late
I wanna make a new friend no matter where I'm at
I never wanna say, I wish that I'd done that
Watch the sunset from a beach in San Diego
Ride a new Harley down to Old Mexico
When this ole ride is over, I'll make my land stand
with a church full of good friends that I know
They'll raise a toast and say he did it his way
Down at Rosie's and they'll all tip their hat
And say he didn't miss a thing in this life that he lived
And he never said that I wish that I'd done that
I wanna live every moment like my last day
And see the seven wonders before it's too late
I wanna make a new friend no matter where I'm at
And I never wanna say, I wish that I'd done that
That ole clock keeps on ticking like a meter on a wall
But before it ticks it's last for me, I hope I did it all
I wanna live every moment like my last day
And see the seven wonders before it's too late
I wanna make a new friend no matter where I'm at
And I never wanna say
No I never wanna say, I wish that I'd done that
