Song | The Mind Of John J. Blanchard |
Artist | Tommy Shane Steiner |
Album | Then Came The Night |
作曲 : Smith, Wallin | |
He had a stroke in '95 | |
They thought it best that he reside | |
In a nursing home | |
His family vowed they'd never leave him | |
Last time they came to see him | |
Was three years ago | |
He spent his whole life providin' | |
Now he was down to relyin' | |
On medicare | |
The nurses took a likin' to him | |
They'd get his wheelchair out and push him | |
On sunny days | |
He couldn't walk, he couldn't speak | |
Seemed so far outta reach | |
But in his mind as far as they know he could be | |
Fly fishin', workin' on that | |
Firebird engine | |
Runnin' 99 proof moonshine cross that county line 3,2,1 and ignition, off on some space shuttle mission | |
Playin' QB for the | |
Cowboy's getting high on the crowd noise | |
And the bright lights ' | |
Cause deep inside things were rockin' in the mind | |
Of John J. | |
Blanchard | |
One afternoon in | |
June A nurse saw his finger move | |
She bout had a heart attack | |
Went screamin' down the hall "Hey it's a miracle ya'll I think he's comin' back" | |
The doctors all rushed in | |
Said do you know what year this is | |
How many fingers am | |
I holdin' and where've you been | |
And he said | |
Fly fishin', workin' on that | |
Firebird engine | |
Runnin' 99 proof moonshine cross that county line 3,2,1 and ignition, off on some space shuttle mission | |
Playin' QB for the | |
Cowboy's getting high on the crowd noise | |
And the bright lights ' | |
Cause deep inside things were rockin' in the mind | |
Of John J. | |
Blanchard | |
