[00:22.68]Just a boy of seventeen
[00:25.34]Left school to chase a dream
[00:33.41]Hard times the mills closed down
[00:36.02]No one working in old steel town
[00:43.49]So he practiced 'til his fingers bled
[00:47.00]It might be a long time a long time coming
[00:55.15]Joined a band to pay his dues
[00:57.74]Playing hard the three river blues
[01:05.50]Iron city house rocking making the scene
[01:16.24]One way out is his rock 'n roll dream
[01:23.70]Played all night 'til he was half dead
[01:48.96]It might be a long time
[01:59.77]Still playing the same old town
[02:02.09]Lots of new faces coming around
[02:09.44]The years roll by and they all know
[02:13.00]The boy's still making that big blue sound
[02:21.60]Holding on to that dream
[02:24.24]Even though it's a long time
[02:29.74]It's a long time
[02:40.06]A long time coming
[02:50.39]Gonna be a long time
[02:58.51]A long time coming
