Lyrics
Shake (ride it out)
Well you had it all together the night before
But you really didn't think to watch your step
You took it to the limit you were on the floor
Now it's all over and your afraid
When you were a young man
you could go all night
Put the liquor on the table no end in sight
Now you are older, Katie bar the door
There's a message in the bottle
that's washed ashore
Shake ride it out, bite your lip, scream and shout
you have no choice
Shake hold the calls, stay in your room,
bounce off the walls
Shake get a grip, try to shoot from the hip
You've got to
Shake keep the faith,
brace yourself cause you will shake
Until it's over
Your Daddy was a good one to show you how
To walk through a wasteland of hopes and dreams
When he couldn't take it he'd run away
You couldn't do that but that's okay
You'll be alright if you just hold on
This trembling nightmare will pass you by
The next few hours are gonna be a bitch
Show em' what you've got, get down and;
Shake ride it out, bite your lip, scream and shout
you have no choice
Shake hold the calls, stay in your room,
bounce off the walls
Until it's over
Shake, ride it out
Shake, ride it out
Shake, ride it out
Shake (ride it out)
