Way back when, when the days were young |
|
We had our fun |
|
Never cared much about being cool |
|
Or growing old to play the old fool |
|
Part of your life you spend paying your dues |
|
Walking the miles and singing the blues |
|
If I'm born into a pair of ramblin' shoes |
|
I'll tell you what |
|
I'll do I'll take my wings with a heart that's true |
|
And find the way to you |
|
Part of your life you spend paying your dues |
|
Walking the miles in your old man shoes |
|
When I finally find the way to shake loose |
|
I'll tell you what |
|
I'll do Hang my worry on a golden noose |
|
And find the way to you |
|
When we're all old and withering sages |
|
Talkin' 'bout what might have been |
|
Like a missing line or torn out pages |
|
We're gonna miss you then |
|
Walking the miles, singing the blues |
|
Learning to love what god gives to you |
|
If he gave me rockets on the bottom of my shoes |
|
I tell you what |
|
I'd do I'd burn my sole where the sun was new |
|
And find the way |
|
The way to you |
