She was born at midnight. The moment that the storms came. The ground was thirsty. It was cracked and bare. She was magic and everybody knew it. She had blue eyes and warm golden hair.
How was California?. Did they teach you how to surf?. Was it everything they said it was?. Was it all that you deserved?. . Did you hate the Golden state?.
I got a phone call today. From a girl who walked away. But I hung it up before I heard what it was she had to say. . Hey say may. Well I drank all day.
When I was young and lived along the Meramec. Washed in the river when the water ran clean. Waited for the day I could buy me a Cadillac. And see a lot of things that I never had seen.
Well, there's not a girl around that can make me settle down. 'Cause I'm a happy go lucky truck driver. I'm happy and carefree yeah and that's just how I wanna be.
Just down the street eight city blocks. Right behind the dairy queen and the one hundred and eight bus stop. There's a little house I can see it in my mind.
Every morning as I start my day. I stop off at Ernie's Corner Stand. He sees me comin' from a half a block away. He's got my mornin' paper in his hand.
Heavenly Days. Look at that sky. It could've been rainin'. It could've been dry. It could've been cloudy. It could've been clear. It could've been sunshine.
To steal him's been your number one ambition. Bur sister here's one safe that you don't have to crack. I'll hand him over under one condition. A deal's a deal and you can't give him back.
Columbus said the world was round. Back when everyone said it was flat. Just between me and you and the man in the moon. Baby, it ain't anything like that.
All the boys he played cards with. Couldn't wait til he came. But they haven't seen him. Since I got his last name. He plays at home now. And he always wins.
Taste me in your morning coffee. Feel me in the air. When the sunlight warms your skin. Baby, think of me. . See me standing there beside you. When you know that your alone.
Nothing is wrong here so I'm climbing up the walls. Trying to kill this silence with gun blasts and alcohol. I've been laughing, I've been crying, I've been living, I've been dying.
She told me she love me, she told me a lie. She said I'd be happy then she made me cry. Well, I'm hurtin', hurtin' inside. . She called me a baby in front of these guys.
I've had nothing but sorrow. Since you said we were through. There's no hope for tomorrow. How's the world treating you?. . Every sweet thing that mattered.
