[Verse 1]
I've been called a rambler
'Cause I keep my eyes on that horizon line
And I've been called a gambler
'Cause I always wanna let my winnings ride
I've been broke more times than I can count
I've been stuck for days in a lonely town
When my luck ran south

[Chorus]
Hey, I might be making me a reputation
Of going my own way and I can't live it down
Got the throttle wide open, gonna live it up knowing
In this life, you only get one go around
And I can't live it down

[Verse 2]
There's times I've wasted money
'Cause I know that I can always make more cash
But wasted time is something, man
When it's gone, you can't get it back
So I'll go on burning up both ends
'Cause I don't want a whole lot of might-have-beens
Now that would be a sin

[Chorus]
Hey, I might be making me a reputation
Of going my own way and I can't live it down
Got the throttle wide open, gonna live it up knowing
In this life, you only get one go around
And I can't live it down
[Bridge]
Gonna live for the places I ain't been
Make a lot of good remember-whens
But right up to the end

[Chorus]
Yeah, I might be making me a reputation
Of going my own way and I can't live it down
Got the throttle wide open, gonna live it up knowing
In this life, you only get one go around
And I can't live it down

[Outro]
I can't live it down
I can't live it down
