Lyrics
I like It That Way (G. Steele /M. Hamilton)
People always tell me, not to do the things I do
I like to take my chances, rolled the dice a time or two
Living on the edge you know, it makes me feel alive
There's too many sheltered souls just happy to get by
My life is right, I feel alive, no matter what they say
They don't understand me but, you know I like it that way
I drive a little faster than the signs say I should go
Going all the way, no compromise, I never take it slow
The throttle's to the maximum but I never lose control
When I take it on, I give it all my heart and soul
They can try to change my mind but I won't play their games
They don't understand me but, you know I like it that way
Climbing all these mountains
Can take the strength from me
I never go for second best
I take it to extreme
Simple satiisfacation, that's how hard some people try
It's all a distraction, while the good things pass them by
What works for you won't work for me, cause we're just not the same
They don't understand me but, you know I like it that way
I like a taste of danger, feel it running through my veins
It just fires me up and now I do it everyday
I don't worry 'bout it coming crashing down on me
It isn't for the faint of heart or those too blind to see
Taking their advice to heart, would be my first mistake
They don't understand me but, you know I like it that way
Got a lot of life to live you know, I like to drink it up
It goes down oh so easy, I can't get enough
They keep holding back I'm sure it makes them feel alright
I can't wait until tomorrow when I feel so good tonight
This life might have its dangers, that's a risk I'll have to take
They don't understand me but, you know I like it that way
