Wollten immer dem Hundeleben entkommen,
dem Küchentisch aus umgedrehten Kartons
und weg von den Ungeziefern im Kleiderschrank,
eines Tages mehr sein als der Untermieter des kleinen Manns.
Hatten es anders gedacht, in die Ferne nach Atlanta gemacht.
Nur Bilder der großen Welt zerschellen ohne Geld in dem Wohnwagenplatz, dort am Rande der Stadt.
Mama war's satt, waren einfach arm, einfach mies,
du warst mal ein Jahr da, dann ein Jahr Krieg.
Wusst' nie wo das liegt, wann du wieder mal kommst,
malte dir Bilder mit Sonnen, jeden Brief an die Front.
'Mein Sohn,' hast du gesagt, da beim schießen im Wald,
'lass dir nie was gefallen, vergiss nie diesen Knall.
So sehr du dich erschreckst, blick dem Feind ins Gesicht,
echte Männer stehen wieder auf, nur die Feiglinge nicht!'

Papa sagte: 'Sohn, nimm mein Gewehr.
Mal bist du der Jäger, mal bist du der Bär.
Doch wenn,
du Bär sein musst, um Gottes Willen, dann kämpf!
Und ich bin Grizzly jetzt. (Ich bin ein Grizzly jetzt)
Und du sagtest auch: 'Wenn das Leben nur Zitronen gibt,
mach verdammt nochmal Limonade drauß.
Sprich grade raus, Kinn hoch, nie feige, Sohn.
Spiel nicht mit Herzen, oder denen die das mit deinem tun.
Wir sind nicht reich, werden's nie sein.
Probleme für's Leben zu groß, für's Sterben zu klein.
Du weißt, es regnet nicht ewig immer nur schwer,
nur stets zum Kinn und hör, Zeit schwimmen zu lernen.
Zu gern ich immer da wär, kommt es hart auf hart,
nimm die Faust, Finger raus.
Such den Größten der Bande, spring da drauf, schwing voll aus.
Verlieren wirst du nur das eine Mal, denn ist alles gegeben,
denken sie das nächste Mal zwei mal nach.
Der Sinn des Lebens ist Leben, das wars.
Der Sinn des Lebens ist leben.
Jeder tritt auch mal versehendlich daneben,
Der Trick ist immer die Balance zwischen Nehmen und Geben.

Es wäre heut' nicht wie es ist,
wär es damals nicht gewesen wie es war. (Wie es war)
Der Sinn des Lebens ist leben!
