How bad do ya want it?

"Robert Johnson went to the crossroad, so the legend goes
He lives with his guitar and the devil took his soul
The devil took his soul"

Been out here on this highway
Breathing diesel smoke
Driving hard for hours
Tryin' to make that Memphis show
People always ask me
Son what does it take
To reach out and touch your dreams?
To them I always say...

Are you hungry?
Are you thirsty?
Is it a fire that burns you up inside?

How bad do you want it?
How bad do you need it?
Are you eatin, sleepin, dreamin
With that one thing on your mind?
How bad do you want it?
How bad do you need it?
Cause if you want it all
You've got to lay it all out on the line

I get to make my living
Doing what I love
Every night I give my heart and soul
Sometimes that ain't enough
But brother, if you're like me
Looking down that road
Be careful of that wild wind, son
Sometimes it don't let go

Can you feel it?
Can you taste it?
Can you hear it knocking at your door?

How bad do you want it?
How bad do you need it?
Are you eatin, sleepin, dreamin
With that one thing on your mind?
How bad do you want it?
How bad do you need it?
Cause if you want it all
You've got to lay it all out on the line

There's always a price you pay, no matter what you do
If you're gonna climb that mountain to the top
It always comes down to...

How bad do you want it?
How bad do you need it?
Are you eatin, sleepin, dreamin
With that one thing on your mind?
How bad do you want it?
How bad do you need it?
Cause if you want it all
You've got to lay it all out on the line

"Robert Johnson went to the crossroad, so the legend goes
He lives with his guitar and the devil took his soul
The devil took his soul"
