Well I used to be a dreamer, but that was such a long time ago |
|
Yeah I used to be a walking man 'round them dusty back roads |
|
Hangin' 'round the track waitin' by the main line |
|
Listen to the rumble rockin' rhythm and time |
|
I was swingin' with that jump up beat |
|
Down on Track 49 |
|
Well I used to be a loaner and I thought I had nowhere to go |
|
Yeah I used to be a boozer, a blew rock into a whole lotta dough |
|
Then a heard them horns a blastin' and the next thing I knew |
|
I was a jumpin' and a jive'n just a shakin' my shoes |
|
Yeah I boogie away all my blues |
|
Down on Track 49 |
|
Yeah, lets ride! |
|
Yes, tell me . . . |
|
Well I used to be a loser and I almost lost my handle on life |
|
Yeah, I spent my nights in darkness, searching for an end to my strife |
|
Yeah, then I heard them horns a-blastin' and it's makin' me high |
|
Like the fireworks a-flyin' on the fourth of July |
|
Ain't worried about nothin' now |
