[00:15.30] |
You know, man, when I was a young man in high school |
[00:19.47] |
You believe it or not I wanted to play football for the coach |
[00:27.44] |
And all those older guys |
[00:29.15] |
They said he was mean and cruel, but you know |
[00:33.62] |
Wanted to play football for the coach |
[00:40.51] |
They said I was too little too light weight to play line-backer |
[00:42.81] |
So I say I'm playing right-end |
[00:46.00] |
Wanted to play football for the coach |
[00:53.15] |
'Cause, you know some day, man |
[00:55.07] |
You gotta stand up straight unless you're gonna fall |
[00:58.57] |
Then you're gone to die |
[01:04.83] |
And the straightest duel |
[01:06.28] |
I ever knew was standing right for me all the time |
[01:10.70] |
So I had to play football for the coach |
[01:16.52] |
And I wanted to play football for the coach |
[01:20.82] |
|
[01:35.95] |
When you're all alone and lonely |
[01:39.34] |
In your midnight hour |
[01:48.36] |
And you find that your soul |
[01:51.57] |
It's been up for sale |
[01:54.49] |
|
[02:00.67] |
And you begin to think about |
[02:03.85] |
All of the things that you've done |
[02:12.97] |
And you begin to hate |
[02:15.96] |
Just about everything |
[02:18.01] |
|
[02:27.62] |
But remember the princess who lived on the hill |
[02:38.10] |
Who loved you even though she knew you was wrong |
[02:51.37] |
And right now she just might come shining through |
[02:57.98] |
And the - |
[03:00.59] |
- glory of love |
[03:06.87] |
Glory of love |
[03:12.94] |
Glory of love, just might come through |
[03:24.73] |
And all your two-bit friends |
[03:27.97] |
Have gone and ripped you off |
[03:37.23] |
They're talking behind your back saying, man |
[03:39.50] |
You're never going to be no human being |
[03:42.19] |
|
[03:51.64] |
And you start thinking again |
[03:53.02] |
About all those things that you've done |
[03:59.80] |
And who it was and what it was |
[04:03.01] |
And all the different things you made every different scene |
[04:06.26] |
|
[04:14.04] |
Ah, but remember that the city is a funny place |
[04:25.71] |
Something like a circus or a sewer |
[04:37.68] |
And just remember different people have peculiar tastes |
[04:44.91] |
And the - |
[04:47.82] |
- glory of love |
[04:52.84] |
The glory of love |
[04:58.73] |
The glory of love, might see you through |
[05:07.99] |
Yeah, but now, now |
[05:10.50] |
Glory of love |
[05:15.92] |
The glory of love |
[05:21.63] |
The glory of love, might see you through |
[05:26.34] |
|
[05:33.46] |
Glory of love, ah, huh, huh, the glory of love |
[05:43.73] |
Glory of love, glory of love |
[05:49.60] |
Glory of love, now, glory of love, now |
[05:55.14] |
Glory of love, now, now, now, glory of love |
[06:00.89] |
Glory of love, give it to me now, glory of love see you through |
[06:10.12] |
