 Dug through the ashtray under the cushions
Shook all my blue jeans, spent all day looking
For enough change to get the rent paid
Just so I can hang here for another week
I've been passed on, shown the way out
Wore out these steel toes, kicking some doors down
Just need that one chance don't tell me that I can't
I've gotta do it, man, ain't got no plan B
(Chorus)
I don't wanna go home
And give in to all these people
That say I can't do it
I don't wanna prove 'em all right
I'll take my licks and keep on
Getting up swinging
Is that all you got, bring it
So what, I'm beat and I'm bruised
I didn't come here to lose
Give me your heck no's, you'll never make it's
All those cynical back-handed praises
I'll turn 'em into something I can use
A little rocket fuel for my shooting star
(Chorus)
I don't wanna go home
And give in to all these people
No, I don't wanna prove 'em all right
Ain't going back home
I'll take my licks and keep on
Getting up swinging
Is that all you got, bring it
So what, I'm beat up and I'm bruised
I didn't come here to lose
I didn't come here to lose
Ain't no turning back
