Lyrics:

Yeah, you remember this one?

Well, I remember when I was seventeen
My father told me, 'Pick your dreams.'
Said life ain't easy as it seems
He said, 'When you get older, boy, you'll see what I mean.'

I never look at it but let it ride, daddy

Well, at the time, I wanted to be twenty-one
It seemed the right age for havin' fun
But when I got there I was still too young
Twenty-five seemed to be the one

Right now I live my life from day to day
Well, I wouldn't have it any other way
Well, I ain't twelve and I ain't sixty-four, no
I spend my time like there ain't gonna be no more
Oh, oh yeah

You know that sweet girl you've been chasin' 'round
Well, she's got you hooked 'long as she keeps you down
But I know what happens, baby, once she comes around
It won't be long when you'll be back on the town

You gotta live your life from day to day
I wouldn't have it any other way
Well, I ain't twelve and I ain't sixty-four
Spend my time like there ain't gonna be no more, oh

Oh
Keep on rollin'
Keep on rollin'
I make it last, I make it last
I make it last and last
I make it last, I make it last
I make it last and last

Because it's alright
It's alright
It's alright
It's alright
It's alright
It's alright
It's alright, oh yeah

Look out baby, I'm comin' to town
I'm gonna tear it up, I'm gonna tear it down
I play long, I play hard
I play for keeps, with no holds barred

When I rock, baby, and I roll
And I do it out of control
I'm reckless

And I do anything that hasn't been done
I'll do it for money, I'll do it for fun
And I do get busted, I don't understand
I'll be your lover baby, I'm a back door man
Yeah, yeah, yes

I'm fast and I take chances
I'm a fool for one night romances
'Cause I'm reckless
Gary Pihl

Well, I want it now, I can't wait my turn
I've been fried, but I won't get burned
Well, I live my life for the flash
Reach for the edge, but I won't crash
Like all the rest

The stronger the danger
Well, I could care less
Well, it leaves me breathless
And reckless

Reckless
Reckless
I break all the rules
I wanna live for today

I'm reckless
I'm reckless
Reckless
Reckless
