Before this world starts up again |
It’s me and night |
We wait for the sun |
The kids and drunks head back inside |
Well, there’s lots of smart ideas in books I’ve never read |
When the girls come talk to me, I wish to hell I had |
(Get up, get up) Turn the ignition |
(Get up, get up) Fire up the system |
Play my little part in something big |
I’ll accept with poise, with grace |
When they draw my name from the lottery |
And they’ll say, «All the salt in the world couldn’t melt that ice.» |
I’m the one who gets away |
I’m a New Jersey success story |
And they’ll say, «Lord, give me a chance to shake that hand.» |
(They'll say) |
Back when I was younger, I was someone you’d’ve liked |
Got an old guitar I’ve had for years I’d let you buy |
And I’ll tell you something else that you ain’t dying enough to know |
There’s still some living left when your prime comes and goes |
(Get up, get up) Dance on the ceiling |
(Get up, get up) Boy, you must be dreaming |
Rock on young saviour, don’t give up your hopes |
I’ll accept with poise, with grace |
When they draw my name from the lottery |
And they’ll say, «All the salt in the world couldn’t melt that ice.» |
I’m the one who gets away |
I’m a New Jersey success story |
And they’ll say, «Lord, give me a chance to shake that hand.» |
I have one last wish |
And it’s from my heart |
Just let me down |
Just let me down, easy |
I’ll accept with poise, with grace |
When they draw my name from the lottery |
And they’ll say, «All the salt in the world couldn’t melt that ice.» |
I’m the one who gets away |
I’m a New Jersey success story |
And they’ll say, «Lord, give me a chance to shake his hand.» |
(They'll say) |
