Lyrics:

Writer: Bill McDavid

I've always been wild
The one always jumpin' the gun
Through all the pain I had to stay on the run
You only live once has always been my lifes decree
Never given a choice I had to march to the drummer in me

When I was young the writing was there on the wall
I feared if I danced to this tune the Fiddler would call
Now wouldn't you konw that's just how it turned out to be
Never given a choice I had to march to the drummer in me

Me and the Drummer, seems like were always alone
Me and the Drummer, we dance a whole different song
With or without you, the feeling will always be strong
With or without you, Me and the Drummer move on

The loves of my life
They all think I'm heartless and cold
No way to know that I love them Down in my soul
God grant may one wish, I know just what it would be
That they'd all understand and forgive that old drummer and me
