Places left to go
And your farewell to has-beens
All the while behind your back
Ahh, don't look back
Ain't it high time? You turn yourself around
Real ones and those who drop your name
So, step up and pay the price
And it's high time you turn yourself around
It's a high cost of low livin'
They've been chasing each dream with whiskey
It's bound to put you six feet in the ground
Usin' up all your real friends
Ain't it high time? You turn yourself around
You should know by now through all their game
But still, you just can't tell
It's a high cost of low livin'
Yeah, the high cost of low livin'
Don't look behind you
Well, the high cost of low livin'
All your good time friends
From here to Tokyo
It's bound to put you six feet in the ground
Lord knows, just along for the ride
So many here who love ya
No one rides for nothin'
They lift the flesh right from your bones
Past is gone, gone at last
Yeah, the high cost of low livin'
But boy, you better think twice
And it's high cost of low livin'
Don't turn to find reason in the past
You think you're a survivor
