Live Those Songs
Lyrics
Saw him sittin' on a sidewalk in Fresno
Braided hair and a tie-dyed T-shirt on
Talking 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 rolling on a river with Creedence
Stealing kisses from Peggy Sue
I'd be knee-deep in sand on a Panama Beach
In the spring of '72
I'd be wasting away on the dock of the bay
Watching the tide roll in
He said, "What I wouldn't give just to live those songs again"
Saw him working the counter at Walgreens
With a new haircut and a bachelor's degree
Talking to himself about his raw deal
Cussing Uncle Sam and the G.I. 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 rolling on a river with Creedence
Stealing kisses from Peggy Sue
I'd be knee-deep in sand on a Panama Beach
In the spring of '72
I'd be wasting away on the dock of the bay
Watching 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 rolling on a river with Creedence
Stealing kisses from Peggy Sue
I'd be knee-deep in sand on a Panama Beach
In the spring of '72
I'd be wasting away on the dock of the bay
Watching the tide roll in
He said, "What I wouldn't give just to live those songs again"
Yeah, oh, yeah, oh!
