Who Do I Want To Be

Yes, you can sit here running up my hotel bar bill
Or, you could go get the love of your life

You can sit here drinking beer all night long
And feel sorry for yourself

Or you can go out into the world
Be proactive and make something out of yourself

Now's the time to think do I want to be a loser
Or do I want to be a winner

Yes, you can sit here running up my hotel bar bill
Or, you could go get the love of your life

You can sleep and be all lazy as can be 
Bumming around your house all day long 

Or you can go out into the world 
Each and every day 
With a strong desire and will power
To work hard 

Now's the time to think do I want to be a loser
Or do I want to be a winner

Yes, you can sit here running up my hotel bar bill
Or, you could go get the love of your life

You can drink and smoke and 
Party all of the time 
Wasting your precious years and
Hard earned money

Or you can limit yourself to drinking in moderation 
At special times of the year and 
saving your hard earned money 

Now's the time to think do I want to be a loser
Or do I want to be a winner

Yes, you can sit here running up my hotel bar bill
Or, you could go get the love of your life

You can do nothing with your life
Or you can be proactive and make the best 
That you can out of life, 
The things you do, 
The places you go, 
And the people you meet
With a smile on your face 

Now's the time to think do I want to be a loser
Or do I want to be a winner
And be an inspiration in the world
