Live Those Songs

Saw him sittin' on a side walk in Fresno

Braided hair and a tie-dyed t-shirt on

Talkin' to himself about Vietnam

'Bout the tour he did and the deal he got

He said, "This world ain't the same if you ask me"

If I could be somewhere else, I'd tell you where I'd be.

I'd be rollin' on a river with Cree dance

Stealin' kisses from Peggy Sue

I'd be knee-deep in sand on a Panama beach

In the spring of '72

I'd be wastin' away on the dock of the bay

Watchin' the tide roll in

He said, "What I wouldn't give just to live those songs, again"

Saw him workin' the counter at Walgreens

With a new haircut and a Bachelor's Degree

Talkin' to himself about his raw deal

Cussin' Uncle Sam and the GI bill

He said, "This world ain't the same if you ask me"

If I could be somewhere else, I'd tell you where I'd be

I'd be rollin' on a river with Cree dance

Stealin' kisses from Peggy Sue

I'd be knee-deep in sand on a Panama beach

In the spring of '72

I'd be wastin' away on the dock of the bay

Watchin' the tide roll in

He said, What I wouldn't give just to live those songs, again

He said, "This world ain't the same if you ask me"

If I could be somewhere else, I'd tell you where I'd be

I'd be rollin' on a river with Cree dance

Stealin' kisses from Peggy Sue

In the spring of '72

I'd be wastin' away on the dock of the bay

Watchin' the tide roll in

He said, "What I wouldn't give just to live those songs, again"

Oh, again
