When I was a young boy. I was working for the state. I wasn't making much money. I was staying out late. Go down at nighttime. Playing music in the bars.
In the dark of the sun will you save me a place?. Give me hope, give me comfort, get me to. A better place?. . I saw you sail across a river. Underneath Orion's sword.
Somewhere out my doorway. Somewhere down my block. I can hear her heartbeat. In rhythm with my clock. . I want her more than diamonds. I want her more than gold.
Your daddy was a Sgt. Major. You didn't wanna but he made you. Wipe his brass from time to time. It left a picture in your mind. You know? You know?. .
Trouble blew in on a cold dark wind. It came without no warning. And that big ol' house went up for sale. They were on the road by morning. Oh, the days went slow, into the changing season.
Hey babe, you gotta wake up now. I got something to say. The way I feel, I can't stay here. I gotta leave today. I can't stand to settle down. Gotta catch a ride.
She's a good girl, loves her mama. loves Jesus, and America too. She's a good girl, crazy 'bout Elvis. Loves horses and her boyfriend too. . It's a long day livin' in Reseda.
Working all day and the sun don't shine. Trying to get by and I'm just killing time. I feel the rain fall the whole night through. Far away from you California blue.
She's a good girl, loves her mam a. Loves Jesus and America too. She's a good girl, crazy 'bout Elvis. Loves horses and her boyfriend too. . It's a long day living in Reseda.
Well I started out down a dirty road, started out all alone. And the sun went down as I crossed the hill. And the town lit up and the world got still.
Everytime I look. Into your loveing eyes. I see a love that money. Just can't buy. One look from you. I drift away. I pray that you. Are here to stay.
(Roy Orbison/Jeff Lynne/Tom Petty). Working all day. And the sun don't shine. Trying to get by. And I'm just killin' time. I feel the rain. Fall the whole night through.
So let it rain. Or let the sun shine down on me. I feel no pain. Now that you're here it's all the same. . You are the one. I should have known. I'm blown away.
I wanna show all of my haters love, this song's for you. If you acted like me, and I was in your shoes. I'd probably hate on me, too. . See when you gettin' big cash stacks.
She's a good girl, she loves her mama. She loves Jesus and America too. She's a good girl, she's crazy 'bout Elvis. She loves horses and her boyfriend too, yeah.
