Live Those Songs Live lyrics

Saw him sittin` on a sidewalk in Fresno
Braided hair and a tye-dyed t-shirt on
Talkin` to himself about Vietnam
`Bout the tour he did and the deal he got
He said, This world ain`t the same if you ask me.
If I could be somewhere else, I`d tell you where I`d be.

I`d be rollin` on a river with Creedance
Stealin` kisses from Peggy Sue
I`d be knee-deep in sand on a Panama beach
In the spring of `72
I`d be wastin` away on the dock of the bay
Watchin` the tide roll in
He said, What I wouldn`t give just to live those songs, again.

--- Instrumental ---

Saw him workin` the counter at Walgreens
With a new haircut and a Bachelor`s Degree
Talkin` to himself about his raw deal
Cussin` Uncle Sam and the GI bill
He said, This world ain`t the same if you ask me
If I could be somewhere else, I`d tell you where I`d be.

I`d be rollin` on a river with Creedance
Stealin` kisses from Peggy Sue
I`d be knee-deep in sand on a Panama beach
In the spring of `72
I`d be wastin` away on the dock of the bay
Watchin` the tide roll in
He said, What I wouldn`t give just to live those songs, again.

--- Instrumental ---

He said, This world ain`t the same if you ask me
If I could be somewhere else, I`d tell you where I`d be.

I`d be rollin` on a river with Creedance
Stealin` kisses from Peggy Sue
I`d be knee-deep in sand on a Panama beach
In the spring of `72
I`d be wastin` away on the dock of the bay
Watchin` the tide roll in
He said, What I wouldn`t give just to live those songs, again.
Oh, again...

--- Instrumental to fade ---
