Meat Loaf - Jumpin' The Gun lyrics

Heaven blesses those who wait,

patience is a virtue, son

Keep your toe on the line,

keep your foot on the brake

No sense jumpin` the gun

But girl I`m tired of waitin`,

you know life`s too short

Lemme kiss ya `til the night is done

Ain`t no doubt about it, you`re my favourite sport,

God I wanna jump the gun

Chorus:

Feel like jumpin` the gun,

tonight I`m gonna jump the gun

No crime in havin` some fun,

how about jumpin` the gun

(chorus)

Now they say it doesn`t matter if ya win or lose

Only matters how ya play the game

Well, but let me tell ya baby, if I had to choose

Gotta win ya now or go insane

(chorus)

Willya hold me like a trophy,

willya burn up the track

Willya love me when the title`s won

Blow away the competition

baby, never look back, honey willya jump the gun

Gonna hold ya like a trophy,

gonna burn up the track

Gonna love ya when the title`s won

They`ll be eatin` up the dust

baby, never look back

Tonight I`m gonna jump

Better get ready,

better get set girl -

this time we`re jumpin` the gun

Ya think we`re goin` too fast, ain`t seen nothin` yet girl

This time we`re jumpin` the gun

Ready take your mark, ooh I just can`t wait -

this time we`re jumpin` the gun

Ya gotta break a couple rules if ya wanna break the tape

This time we`re jumpin` the gun

(chorus repeats out)
