Oh yeah

Oh yeah

Oh yeah

Oh yeah

Oh yeah

Oh yeah

Oh yeah

Oh yeah

Oh yeah

World goes round, life I chose

What comes next? I never really know

A million miles, left to go

Them guns go "pow", but I'm ready for the war

'Cause I'll never run away from who knocking at my door

I never paid attention to whoever tells me "no"

I take your crown, take your town

Better stay ready, better stay ready

If the sky start falling now

And the world stop turnin' round (Oh yeah)

Did you give your everything?

You better give your everything

'Cause if you wanna ride with me (Oh yeah)

Make me come alive, baby (Oh yeah)

Said if you wanna ride with me (Oh yeah)

If you wanna ride with me

Show me how bad do you want it?

How bad do you want it?

Oh yeah (Oh)

Oh yeah

Oh yeah

How bad do you-

Gunnin' for it all, going for the gold

Hot behind the wheel, I'll never lose control

Sun go down, night unfold

I'm free and wild, do anything I want

'Cause I'll never run away from who knocking at my door

I never paid attention to whoever tells me "no"

I take your crown, take your town

Better stay ready, better stay ready

If the sky start falling now

And the world stop turnin' round (Oh yeah)

Did you give your everything?

You better give your everything

'Cause if you wanna ride with me (Oh yeah)

Make me come alive, baby (Oh yeah)

Said if you wanna ride with me (Oh yeah)

If you wanna ride with me (Oh)

Show me, how bad do you want it? (How bad you want it?)

How bad do you want it? (How bad you want it?)

Oh yeah (Oh)

Oh yeah

Oh yeah

How bad do you-

Better show me now

'Fore your time run out

Better show me

'Fore your time run out

Show me, how bad do you want it? (How bad you want it?)

How bad do you want it? (How bad you want it?)

Oh yeah (How bad you want it?)

Oh yeah

Oh yeah

Show me, how bad do you want it? (How bad you want it?)
