Johnny Van Zant - Takin' Up Space lyrics

That Friday night seemed just like any other

Friday night Jimmy wasnt gonna play

Sittin on the bench chompin at the bit knowin he was better

5'6" goin on six eight

A man went down jimmy went in third and long first and ten

Crowd went wild touchdown jimmy said i came to win

Chorus

If your gunna go go all the way

If your gunna stay stand your ground

If you can run with the big dogs

Big dog let me walk you out

If you cant lead let me by you

If you wont follow get out the way

Your takin up space

Shelly had her daddys money waiting

All she had to do was share his chair

She had a dream that he didnt want her chasin

She was a night school millionaire

She worked 2 jobs to pay her way

Stayed up late to make the grade

Graduated Summa Cum Laude PhD the hard way

Chorus

Lifes too short to live in caution

Life to long to not live at all

Chorus
