Bertie Higgins - Cannonball

Cannonball

Faith is the force that makes the mountain move
And sweat is what heaves it into the sea
The race has been on since the moment you were born
And those who win work hardest to believe
That nothing is impossible if you know that it's so
And all that you desire you can receive
Let your heart have its say
Climb inside then drive away
Open the door, crank her up
Courage is the key
Life is so short go for it all
You gotta stick it in the wind, don't fear the fall (fear the fall)
Don't shoot for the silver dollar, the golden ring just can't be bought
It ain't enough to be a big gun son, you got to be the cannonball
Now that is easy money
Never bought no boy no pride
Or a good old girl's love and respect
That jingle in the jeans
Marks a man who's earned his means
Without a free ride
He got what he had to get
The time has arrived
Don't surrender to survive
Go the distance
Go get ready or go get set
If you're stuck on the starting line
Suck it up and try it one more time
Coast to coast, California to Connecticut
Life is so short, go for it all
You gotta stick it in the wind, don't fear the fall
Don't shoot for the silver dollar, the golden ring just can't be bought
It ain't enough to be a big gun, son
You've got to be the cannonball
Life is so short, go for it all
You gotta stick it in the wind, don't fear the fall (fear the fall)
Don't shoot for the silver dollar, the golden ring just can't be bought
It ain't enough to be a big gun, son, you've got to be the cannonball
A cannonball
You gotta be the cannonball
