That Wrecking Ball

I'm takin' to leanin'
 These past few days,
 A little too heavy on my wakin' cane.
 Cuz I'm afraid she's swingin' my way,
 That wreckin' ball.
 Now with all my ducks in a row,
 With one pull, I can let 'em go.
 Not to lose, just to show, I could catch them all.
 But every man bears a burden,
 Some beast by the horns
 That he hides from the world
 When he's young 'n' strong
 Lookin' over his shoulder
 Half-tethered and torn
 Still standing tall.
 Every year rolls on, like a runaway train
 Every bistro's stronger as the pendulum swings
 To and fro
 And on she goes
 That wrecking ball
 I just seen that Rock of Ages
 I just tell my Savior's hand.
 We danced underwater with my head on my shoulders
 She swore to never let me fall
 Was a time seemed so kindly
 If every bright-eyed girl could be
 More like you
 Shelter me from that wrecking ball
 That wreckin' ball
