I saw a Grand Marquis
In the lane right next to me
Ella was singing her blues
On the FM radio tune
Feeling kind of weary
Well I was heading north from Fort Erie
Where you can see Buffalo
From across the creek
On the run or on my way
On a national ramble
Time to waste or soul to save
You can't win if you don't take a gamble, yeah
Sometimes I'm sad about my past
Other times I fuss about the future
Got to get back in the present, yeah
Roll on down this road
On the run or on my way
On a national ramble
Time to waste or soul to save
You can't win if you don't
You gotta take a gamble, yeah
Well I gotta find a way you know not today
Build back bone take it away
Gotta find a way to face the pain
Build back bone take it away
Take it away
Take it away
Take it away
Take it away
On the run or on my way
On a national ramble
Time to waste or soul to save
You can't win if you don't take a gamble, yeah
You can't win if you don't
You can't win if you don't
You can' win if you don't take a
You gotta take a gamble, yeah
