Wasted Lyrics

I said, "Man, what are you doing here?
I saw the band just bought you a beer
I used to see your face all over
TV shows and magazine covers"
He said, "I went through a fortune just like that
Down to the shirt I got on my back"
I said, "How?" He said, "Pretty damn fast"
But hey man, since you asked

I spent it on high living, wild women
That roulette wheel that I kept spinning
Beachside bars, big shiny cars
Long vacations in warm locations
I was going non-stop ′til I squeezed every drop
Of that good time, top shelf, sweet life that I tasted
And to tell you the truth, the rest, I just wasted

He kinda laughed underneath those shades
He said, "Yes, son, I had it made"
I had a big boat that made me smile
It burned money, gallons to miles
I really don't worry ′bout where it went
'Cause it's still fun thinkin′ ′bout when

I spent it on high living, wild women
That roulette wheel that I kept spinning
Beachside bars, big shiny cars
Long vacations in warm locations
I was going non-stop 'til I squeezed every drop
Of that good time, top shelf, sweet life that I tasted
And you tell you the truth, the rest, I just wasted

Yeah, I could′ve put in the bank somewhere and saved it
But no, son, you ain't never gonna hear me complainin′

I spent it on high livin', big tippin′
Limo rides and champagne sippin'
First-class tickets to who knows where?
It really didn't matter ′til we got there
I was going non-stop ′til I squeezed every drop
Of that good time, top shelf, sweet life that I tasted
And to tell you the truth, the rest, I just wasted

I spent it on lovin' and livin′
I loved every minute
The rest I wasted
The rest I wasted
