| Couldn’t have ever dawned on me, all the things that
|
| I would be I, I never really looked out quite that far
|
| It’s never been a simple thing, to see the world with a
|
| Young man’s brain with, an old man’s heart, restless soul
|
| Yeah, my family went broke in my eighteenth year
|
| Dad took a job many miles from here that
|
| That was alright by me I was on my own
|
| I had a band, found a job, life was alright
|
| I worked when I had to, we played all the time
|
| Only, got through that first year of college alright
|
| But I learned more on the freight docks
|
| Driving forklifts on the 3 o’clock AM shift
|
| In the winter time, man it got cold
|
| Selling guitars on the west coast
|
| Going hungry, chasin' ghost around
|
| And around we would go
|
| And I saw it all tendin' bar at night
|
| Treatin' saints and sinners right
|
| Is a good thing to do all the time
|
| You never know who you’re talkin' to
|
| But always know who’s watching you
|
| Keep your feet movin' straight down the line
|
| I’ve known a lot of real good men, grad school or no school
|
| I’ve called em' my friends I’m
|
| I’m somewhere in the middle and that’s just fine
|
| No, I don’t give a damn how much money you make
|
| If your last shirt has pockets, take all you can take I’m
|
| Well, I’m goin' out with nothin' like I came in
|
| Cause I learned more on the freight docks
|
