Lyrics:
I'm reckless and feelin' no
pain
You know I've got no need to control
Livin' with the danger I'm always on the edge now
With million dollars visions that I hold
Livin' like this never ever tore my life apart
I know how to maintain and
You know I know my part
On a holiday
A permanent vacation
I'm livin' on a cigarette with wine
I'm never alone 'cause I got myself
Yes, I imitate myself all of the time
Livin' like this never ever tore my life apart
I know how to maintain 'cause it's comin' form my heart
I lead a reckless life
And I don't need your advice
I lead a reckless life
And you know it's my only vice
Reckless life
I lead a reckless life
I lead a reckless life
And you know it's my only -
Reckless life
I lead a reckless life
I lead a reckless life
And you know it's my only vice
pain
You know I've got no need to control
Livin' with the danger I'm always on the edge now
With million dollars visions that I hold
Livin' like this never ever tore my life apart
I know how to maintain and
You know I know my part
On a holiday
A permanent vacation
I'm livin' on a cigarette with wine
I'm never alone 'cause I got myself
Yes, I imitate myself all of the time
Livin' like this never ever tore my life apart
I know how to maintain 'cause it's comin' form my heart
I lead a reckless life
And I don't need your advice
I lead a reckless life
And you know it's my only vice
Reckless life
I lead a reckless life
I lead a reckless life
And you know it's my only -
Reckless life
I lead a reckless life
I lead a reckless life
And you know it's my only vice
Information:
This song was an old Hollywood Rose song, it was actually on a Hollywood Rose demo tape together with 'Nice Boys' and 'Shadow of Your Love' that was handed to Steven by Izzy before GN'R was founded ["My Appetite for Destruction", 2010].
Quotes:
This song is for anybody getting drunk. This song is "Reckless" [Madame Wong's West, July 20, 1984]. |
On thing always bugged me about the very beginning of the record. The count-in to 'Reckless Life' is my very first hit on the drums. It's the high hat and cowbell. When I hit the cowbell the stick slid off. So my first recorded note is muted, it's not all there ["My Appetite for Destruction", 2010]. |
'Reckless Life' performed live at The Roxy, January 18, 1986:
