Alive Lyrics - Mccain Edwin

Al he sells records down on old St. Charley's St. 

He's cleaning up Fat Tuesday's mess he keeps his sidewalk neat 

And he just lost his father and he just lost his wife 

And if it wasn't for the music he couldn't get on with his life 

CHORUS: And he knows what I know 

It's not all that hard to survive 

You take the good and the bad and the time in between 

It lets us know we're alive 

Well now Be Be's singing gospel and down on Bourbon she sings the Blues 

She plays on all my heart strings curls my toes up in my shoes 

And she knows waht I'm after chase my dreams with all my might 

She says you shouldn't be so anxious and deep down I knwo she's right 

REPEAT CHORUS 

Well get on board the rocket step right into the front car 

You know life's a roller coaster, it ain't got no safetly bar 

Raise your voices up with laughter bring it in with one big sigh 

Consecrated in the wonder; 

We're alilve 

Norman he plays music but only in my dreams 

Shows me all the beauty that soulful music brings 

But sometimes he's a spectre and I wake up clenched with a fear 

But lesson good or bad he always keeps me clear 

REPEAT CHORUS
