| I didn’t have the money
|
| Or the clothing, or the manners, or the time
|
| To convince her or persuade her
|
| That all her parents gave her
|
| One way or another should be mine
|
| I lived at the bottom, of the hill
|
| And she lived at the top
|
| Moments some carried all the way down
|
| But nothing could make her stop
|
| All those who hid behind your glory
|
| Those fellows you’ll never see
|
| They litter up your life story
|
| And it looking acting and sound like me
|
| In low light, she was uptight
|
| In the sun, she went away
|
| But I misplaced my rulebook
|
| So you can’t judge the way I play
|
| Turn left in to this tree
|
| And then go straight to my head
|
| The saddest part of all
|
| I remember everything she said
|
| All those who hid behind your glory
|
| Those fellows you’ll never see
|
| They litter up your life story
|
| And in looking act and sound, like me |
