Drunken Soldier (Lyrics)
The printed album lyrics as well as the album preview on Sirius/XM contains alternate lyrics. Dave sings, "Don't let any fool, make you something your not", however on the released album, which is transcribed below Dave sings, "Don't waste time trying to be something your not".
We can only assume that sometime between the time that the artwork and lyrics were printed for the album and the album was completed, there was a change to the lyrics before the final cut was complete.
Keep your head up
Try and listen to your heart
Be kind always, no matter
We all grow up
and someday we'll say goodbye
So shine your light while got one
Make the most of what you've got
Don't waste time trying to be something you're not
Fill up your head, Fill up your heart and take your shot
Don't waste time trying to be something you're not
Once found just once so take your shot
Don't waste time trying to be something you're not
Fill up your head, Fill up your heart cause that all we got
Don't waste time trying to be something you're not
Through your window
That's one way to see the world
Step outside and look back into
Look and listen
And you decide what to believe
Shine your light while you got one
And make the most of what you got
Don't waste time trying to be something you're not
Fill up your head, Fill up your heart and take your shot
Don't waste time trying to be someone you're not
That's not a star that's a satellite
Step it out
Step it out
That's not a star that's a satellite
That's not a star that's a satellite
That's not a star that's a satellite
