Jon Bon Jovi - Dyin' Aint Much Of A Livin' Lyrics

Artist: Jon Bon Jovi

Album: Miscellaneous

Genre: Rock

  • Songwriters: Jon Bon Jovi

You rode a fifteen year old boy straight to his grave
And the rest of us straight to hell

A whiskey bottle comforts me
And tells me not to cry
While a full moon says a prayer for me
I try to close my eyes

But the night's there to remind me
Of the guns and the early graves
The ghosts appear as I fall asleep
To sing an outlaw's serenade

Dyin' ain't much of a livin'
When you're livin' on the run
Dyin' ain't much of a livin' for the young

Is it too late to ask for forgiveness
For the things that I have done?
Dyin' ain't much of a livin' for the young

Oh, desert's been a friend to me
It covers me by night
And a snakebite's not my enemy
But it taught me how to fight

All this fame don't bring you freedom
Though it wears a thin disguise
And an outlaw is just a man to me
And a man has to die

Oh, dyin' ain't much of a livin'
When you're livin' on the run
Dyin' ain't much of a livin' for the young

Is it too late to ask for forgiveness
For the things that I have done?
Dyin' ain't much of a livin' for the young

And I hope somebody will pray for me
When it's my turn to die, pray for me

Dyin' ain't much of a livin'
When you're livin' on the run
Dyin' ain't much of a livin' for the young

Is it too late to ask for forgiveness
For the things that I have done?
Dyin' ain't much of a livin' for the young
