Nineteen, the number on his back. Voted captain of the high school football team. Took us all the way to state. Got a scholarship to play down in Tennessee.
New found freedom, I'm leaving the past behind. New found freedom, making up for lost time. Dug a little deeper, moved it on down the line. Must've been sleepin', it's about time I opened my eyes.
I look around this room and feel the pull of tender years. Before we knew enough to be afraid of all our fears. Baby there was no corner we couldn't fight our way out of.
Living For the City. . A boy is born in hard time mississippi. Surrounded by four walls that ain't so pretty. His parents give him love and affection.
Her daddy had the money, all the milk and honey. She never had to pay any dues. Don't know what her name is but man she sure is famous. She keeps herself all over the news.
Feel you letting go. Holding on, caught in between. Could you risk the pain. Take the chance, your heart might bleed. Just to feel that way. . Can't keep running in circles.
I live on a battlefield surrounded by the ruins of the love we built. And then destroyed between us the smoke has cleared. As I stumble through the rubble I'm a dazed, seeing double.
Ohhhh, I was lying in the bed with fever. And I was, burning up inside. My baby walked, in my bedroom. And I could hardly open my eyes. . She said that she was going to the pawnshop.
You took my heart, baby. And you broke it in a thousand pieces. I may not have been much to you. But every man still needs a reason. . See I tried so hard to love you girl.
When I was a little boy, I felt so alone. Quiet country house that I had to call home. Living with a couple of folks, rich millionaires. Sat on their money; Lord, it seems they didn't care.
I'm rolling out on Friday night. Got my good shoes on and I'm all right. I got this crazy feeling down in my bones. . I walk in the room and the party's on.
I've been waiting, I've been aching. Now you're fading out of reach. I was angry now I'm sorry. Have mercy over me. . Because a life without love would only be a living hell.
I've never been. The one to raise my hand. That was not me. And now that's who I am. . Because of you. I am standing tall. . My heart is full. Of endless gratitude.
Red hat sweater striped, where's waldo tonight?. At a gig, in his book, bumpin to a waldo hook. And since you found this mp3. You caught me in my abc's.
Happy Birthday. I hope that it's a good one. Now that I'm not there to mess it up. You'll be buzzed all day because you're like that. And I will not have to deal with you.
Trillions of stars all in the sky. Do you remember which pact you came by?. When we were born, they erased our minds. Descension Complete welcome to mankind.
She looks at herself in the mirror. Grudgingly hatin on what she sees. Everyday she looks in hopes that somethin might change. That her body might rearrange..
I've given up a palace, a town and everything. But long as you're mine, I'll gladly bear the blame. For you're more to me than a palace is to a king. .
You stole my heart, my dear. Look what you done with it. You made a wreck of it, sweetheart. . You got my lovin', dear. You must be proud of it. You should be kind to it, sweetheart.
Take it away there, Bob. I'm lookin' at you there, I'm lookin' at. That's old Black Bob ticklin' the ivories, there. Ladies and gentlemen, look at 'em there, c'mon.
