Half your life you struggle Half your life you fly Half your life makin' trouble Half your life makin' it right One day I'm the exception Most days I'm just like most Some days I'm headed in the right direction And some days I ain't even close I'm a little bit steady but still little bit rollin' stone I'm a little bit heaven but still a little bit flesh-and-bone Little found, little don't-know-where-I-am I'm a little bit holy water but still a little bit burning man Burning man yeah I always loved the highway I just don't run it as fast I still go wherever the wind blows me But I always find my way back I still don't get it right sometimes I just don't get it as wrong I still go a little bit crazy sometimes Yeah, but now I don't stay near as long I'm a little bit steady but still little bit rollin' stone I'm a little bit heaven but still a little bit flesh-and-bone Little found, little don't-know-where-I-am I'm a little bit holy water but still a little bit burning man Burning man Still just a burn, burn, burning man Just a burning man, uh Maybe I'll go to the desert Find myself in the Joshua Tree If we pass in the night then just hand me a light And tell me you burned just like me I'm a little bit steady but still little bit rollin' stone I'm a little bit heaven but still a little bit flesh-and-bone Little found, little don't-know-where-I-am I'm a little bit holy water but still a little bit burning man Burning man Still just a burn, burn, burning man Just a burning man Uh uh Burning man
