Doing your tightrope walking Seeing your feet above the ground Lord legs don't fail me now Maybe I'm meeting pavement Maybe I'll live to see this town Finally start to come around Doing your tightrope walking Only the suckers carry poles The air's thin, it's getting cold Maybe I'll see my family Maybe this rope ain't gonna soul Release the wheel and lose control Doing your tightrope walking Keeping it so high in the air They bet I fall, they say "I double-dare" Maybe I'll meet my maker Maybe it ends just as it's told Anyway, we're only getting old Doing a tightrope walking Everything looks so small from here The adrenaline is friends with fear Maybe I take my bow now Maybe my feet can feel some earth Weigh the cost with what it's worth All right
