Lyric Love Those Songs

Saw him sittin on a sidewalk in Fresno
Braided hair and a tye-dyed t-shirt on
Talkin to himself about Vietnam
About 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 Credence
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 Credence
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.

In the spring of 72
