[Verse 1] Curve balls, fast balls Long shots, close calls If you're in the game, you'll dang sure see it all Lowest of lows, highest of highs Taste the dirt and touch the sky Dodge a few and take one or two on the jaw [Chorus] That's the cost of life when you're goin' for broke Stay on the ground like it ain't no joke Make your own bed and make your own luck Get knocked down, you get right back up You might find yourself goin' through hell For a little bit of heaven down the road That's the cost of life When you're goin' for broke [Verse 2] To make it right, to prove 'em wrong Dance your dance, sing your song Gotta be tough, gotta be strong There'll be sticks and there'll be stones [Chorus] That's the cost of life when you're goin' for broke Stay on the ground like it ain't no joke Make your own bed and make your own luck Get knocked down, you get right back up You might find yourself goin' through hell For a little bit of heaven down the road That's the cost of life When you're goin' for broke [Bridge] Go all in, all out Burn up a road less rode down Keep those headlights glory-bound Come on, come on, here we go now [Chorus] That's the cost of life when you're goin' for broke Stay on the ground like it ain't no joke Make your own bed and make your own luck Get knocked down, you get right back up You might find yourself goin' through hell For a little bit of heaven down the road That's the cost of life Yeah, when you're goin' for broke (Life) When you're goin' for broke When you're goin' for broke (Life) [Outro] That's the cost of life, yeah That's the only way I know how
