===================================================================== Meat Loaf Lyrics ===================================================================== Jumpin' The Gun --------------------------------------------------------------------- Heaven blesses those who wait, patience is a virtue, son Keep your toe on the line, keep your foot on the brake No sense jumpin' the gun But girl I'm tired of waitin', you know life's too short Lemme kiss ya 'til the night is done Ain't no doubt about it, you're my favourite sport, God I wanna jump the gun Chorus: Feel like jumpin' the gun, tonight I'm gonna jump the gun No crime in havin' some fun, how about jumpin' the gun (chorus) Now they say it doesn't matter if ya win or lose Only matters how ya play the game Well, but let me tell ya baby, if I had to choose Gotta win ya now or go insane (chorus) Willya hold me like a trophy, willya burn up the track Willya love me when the title's won Blow away the competition baby, never look back, honey willya jump the gun Gonna hold ya like a trophy, gonna burn up the track Gonna love ya when the title's won They'll be eatin' up the dust baby, never look back Tonight I'm gonna jump Better get ready, better get set girl - this time we're jumpin' the gun Ya think we're goin' too fast, ain't seen nothin' yet girl This time we're jumpin' the gun Ready take your mark, ooh I just can't wait - this time we're jumpin' the gun Ya gotta break a couple rules if ya wanna break the tape This time we're jumpin' the gun (chorus repeats out) P. Jacobs / S. Durkee, 1984 ---------------------------------------------------------------------
