taking it back

Bon Jovi

I?ve been away so long I hardly knew the place
It?s been too long since I?ve been around
Just like I rolling stone I ain?t go no home
But my boys are back in town

It?s been two long years that I?ve been on the run
From lawyers, lovers, monies and a lawman?s son
You though tit was the last you heard from me
Well you better back up to catch up with me

?Cause I?m livin? in the fast, speeding like a steam train
Just before I fall, just before I fall off the track

Chorus:
Taking it back
I?m taking it back
Taking it back
You took it away, took it away
All I can say is we?re taking it back

I?m the same old dog that I used to be
The word?s all over town that you?ve been looking for me
I?m no different that I was before
Give you what you need and then I?m out the door

?Cause I?m livin? in the fast lane, coming like a hurricane
A snake without a rattle, baby that?s a matter of fact

Chorus:
Taking it back
Taking it back
Taking it back
You took it away, took it away
All I can say is we?re taking it back

I?ve been away so long it?s good to see your face
Barkeep, won?t you buy me a round?
Raise a glass to the good times past
Then we?ll tear this damn place down

Chorus:
Taking it back
Taking it back
Taking it back
Taking it back
