[00:11.17] |
I can see the sky for miles |
[00:13.95] |
I can see that time so clear |
[00:17.08] |
When you told me forever |
[00:19.06] |
Was a word that I should not fear |
[00:22.11] |
I can see you driving and smoking |
[00:25.17] |
Virginia Slims on the dash |
[00:28.00] |
On that day I was crying |
[00:30.52] |
You stopped the car looked back |
[00:32.60] |
You said |
[00:33.78] |
Boy get the message |
[00:36.10] |
This ain't no New York City |
[00:38.44] |
Born and bred in West Texas |
[00:41.59] |
Raised you to be different |
[00:44.13] |
No matter how it ends |
[00:46.66] |
No matter all your sin |
[00:49.24] |
I hope you will understand |
[00:51.83] |
When I leave you better be a good man |
[01:00.32] |
I can see that house in the summer |
[01:03.41] |
Baseball in the yard |
[01:06.01] |
And when my knees got bloody |
[01:08.74] |
You told me keep playing hard |
[01:11.31] |
I remember mass on Sundays |
[01:14.32] |
Collared up to the ten |
[01:17.06] |
You were so d**n faithful |
[01:19.45] |
Even if it all was a mess |
[01:21.83] |
And in those years that we weren't speaking |
[01:24.88] |
When I was drinking for some meaning |
[01:27.99] |
You called me on the phone and then you said |
[01:33.75] |
Boy get the message |
[01:36.18] |
This ain't no New York City |
[01:38.47] |
Born and bred in West Texas |
[01:41.58] |
Raised you to be different |
[01:43.88] |
No matter how it ends |
[01:46.69] |
No matter all your sin |
[01:49.26] |
I hope you will understand |
[01:51.78] |
When I leave you better be a good man |
[02:04.14] |
You better be a good man |
[02:16.90] |
And it's so hard to imagine |
[02:19.36] |
What I'll do without you here |
[02:22.15] |
As you gaze your eyes towards mine |
[02:24.39] |
Tell me to wipe away those tears |
[02:27.63] |
You say Jesus loves you |
[02:29.68] |
Always will no matter what you've did |
[02:33.08] |
And in that moment I'm a kid again |
[02:38.08] |
You said |
[02:41.90] |
Boy get the message |
[02:44.34] |
This ain't no New York City |
[02:46.64] |
Born and bred in West Texas |
[02:49.77] |
Raised you to be different |
[02:52.12] |
No matter how it ends |
[02:54.79] |
No matter all your sin |
[02:57.48] |
I hope you will understand |
[03:00.13] |
When I leave you better be a good man |
[03:12.35] |
You better be a good man |
