The Way We Roll Lyrics


Newsboys The Way We Roll

Songwriters: Frankenstein, Jeff; Furler, Peter Andrew; Garrard, Stuart; Taylor, Steve;

Rewind the clock
We were riding a wave of Oz rock
We were b-b-barely of age to take charge
Or pack our guitars for the long flight, she'll be right

No cash or plan
We were criss-crossing the States in some van
We were c-c-cooking up beans on the block
While the motor was hot
Something's gonna blow, let's get to the show

Give us half an inch we'll be tacking on a mile
Give us a half stage we'll start up a rampage

Put on your backpack, throw out your road map
God'll use anything, check it and see
He's giving us more than we ever could ask for
That's the way we roll 'cause we've been set free
That's the way we roll 'cause we've been set free

Reset the stage
We were out rattling the cage with each show
We were out hawking our shirts for more lights
'Til shine hit the brights and we saw your faces
And we got new bassists

The good and the lame
We were spinning our drums like a dial
We were blowing up domes from a pile
It worked for awhile, if yours didn't rise we apologize

All we've got to give is a God given drive
He keeps us moving, He keeps on proving

Put on your backpack, throw out your road map
God'll use anything, check it and see
He's giving us more than we ever could ask for
That's the way we roll 'cause we've been set free
That's the way we roll 'cause we've been set free

Lighten up, we'll lighten up the load at the starting gate
We'll lighten up the load to a fighting weight
We'll light up the road
Come on kiss your mama goodbye, we gotta fly

Put on your backpack, throw out your road map
God'll use anything, check it and see
He's giving us more than we ever could ask for
That's the way you roll 'cause you've been set free

Put on your backpack, throw out your road map
God'll use anything, check it and see
He's giving us more than we ever could ask for
That's the way we roll 'cause we've been set free
That's the way we roll 'cause we've been set free
That's the way we roll 'cause we've been set free
