| My 53rd Year Leo Dean © 2004 It’s my 53rd summer and my 53rd year My hairs a little gray but I’m proud to be here. Surrounded by my friends and the woman that I adore. I’ve had plenty good times with my old Guitar, Made a lot of music in these seaside bars, Watchin’ people dance underneath a warm Georgia moon. I’ve broke a few strings and I’ve learned a few things, About livin’ and laughtin’ and chasin’ your dreams, An never givin in to the Devil or the deep blue sea. [spoken] There was always time….to: Give a little more than they’re asking for. Greet an old friend standing at your front door. Sing another song and tell another joke or two. See another sunset and another sunrise, Try to see the world thru another man’s eyes, And never take for granted that Gods behind it all. Well I stubbed my toe and I’ve skint my knee, Pissed away money just tryin’ to be me. Hurt a few feelings, broke a few hearts along the way. Told a few lies that I never shoulda, Broke a few rules, when I knew that I coulda… Gone the other way and held my head up high. But I’ll never look back and I’ll never turn away, Cause I still gotta whole lotta bills to pay, On this long road trip….to my 53rd year. [spoken] an there’s always time, to: Give a little more than they’re asking for. Greet an old friend standing at your front door. Sing another song and tell another joke or two. See another sunset and another sunrise, Try to see the world thru another man’s eye’s, And never take for granted that Gods behind it all. [repeat] Give a little more than they’re asking for. Greet an old friend standing at your front door. Sing another song and tell another joke or two. See another sunset and another sunrise, Try to see the world thru another man’s eye’s, And never take for granted that Gods behind it all. In my 53rd year…in my 53rd year. |
