Quite some time, I've been sittin' it out
Didn't take no chances, I was a prisoner of doubt
I knocked down the wailin' wall, ain't no sin
Got the feel of fortune, deal me in

    My most recent Heart discovery....always been a MAJOR fan of their 80s and 90s hits, but their 70s material took well over a decade to grow on me...and hearing this song on the radio a few times, along with 'Heartless', was the tipping point that got me to go purchase their 70s compilation as well!
