Always In The Band Lyrics - Mountains - Lonestar

High school halftime Friday night 

Standing on the fifty yard line 

Big old blue and gold tuba in my hand 

I could see Katie Ann in the popcorn line 

Couldn't see how to make her mine 

I was always in the band 

At eighteen I found a cheap guitar 

Became Seeger and Willie in a smokey bar 

And bared my soul beneath a rusty old mic stand 

I get her name and number on a second break 

Watch someone dance my chance away 

I was always in the band

Refresh Your Christmas Playlist With These 10 Modern Holiday Tracks 

Sometimes this dream demands more than I can give it 

But even still I don't regret a single minute 

Oh, to hear you laugh, to feel your pain 

To see a thousand waving flames 

It's just a part of me, that's who I am 

I was always in the band 

Met her backstage before a show Las Vegas rodeo 

Three months later I asked her for her hand 

We tied the knot on the Sixth of June 

Woulda had a honeymoon 

But I was always in the band 

Left Dallas on the way to Omaha 

Round Tapeeka when I got the call 

Baby's coming, honey, get here when you can 

Yeah, I guess I shoulda turned that bus around 

I'da let 30, 000 people down I was always in the band

Sometimes this dream demands more than I can give it 

But even still I don't regret a single minute 

Oh, to hear you laugh, to feel your pain 

To see a thousand waving flames 

It's just a part of me 

Thank God she understands 

I was always in the band 

I was always in the band
