    [Verse 1]
    Hmm
    Little Jenny's lost her soul on this cold, cold road
    She was trading body parts for money
    But all that glitters ain't gold
    Nobody cared enough to teach her right from wrong
    So this life is the only life she knows
    [Pre-Chorus 1]
    It was a hell of a ride
    But all good things must end
    Night after night
    A new man in her bed
    Till faith decide
    The darkness she's [?]
    Now little Jenny's crying
    And nobody can help
    [Chorus]
    There's only one life to live
    Don't take it for granted
    Things look bleak from here
    It's not the way you planned it
    Is there any way out for me?
    I can hear you asking
    Life's a gamble, gotta play the cards you're handed
    [Verse 2]
    Jake went to school on the road
    Learned about the game and the coach
    Rolling with the nine's and the o's
    Tryna get that money
    Dreaming 'bout the cars and the clothes
    Tryna reach the top on his own
    Seventeen, hardly grown
    He don't need nobody
    [Pre-Chorus 2]
    It was a hell of a ride
    But all good things must end
    Night after night
    The street call him begging
    Till faith decide
    The doctor says he hurt
    Jake's mom is crying
    She knew how this would end
    [Chorus]
    There's only one life to live
    Don't take it for granted
    Things look bleak from here
    It's not the way you planned it
    Is there any way out for me?
    I can hear you asking
    Life's a gamble, gotta play the cards you're handed
    [Bridge]
    Life's a gamble, gotta play the cards you're handed
    Hey, hey, hey
    Hey, hey, hey
    Hey, Oh lord
    [Chorus]
    There's only one life to live
    Don't take it for granted
    Things look bleak from here
    It's not the way you planned it
    Is there any way out for me?
    I can hear you asking
    Life's a gamble, gotta play the cards you're handed
