&quot; i got air in my lungs, a few blank sheets of paper. i mean, i love waking up in the morning not knowing whats gonna happen, or who i&#039;m gonna meet, where i&#039;m gonna wind up. just the other night i was sleepin under a bridge and here i am tonight on the grandest ship in the world drinkin champagne with you fine people. i figure life is a gift and i dont intend on wasting it. you don&#039;t know what hand your gonna get dealt next, you learn to take each day as it comes to you, to make each day count.&quot;
