Julian Velard Jimmy Dean & Steve Mcqueen
The world has gone and changed on me
Destoyed my whole philosophy
My faith was strong it never shook
One levee break was all it took
Can we roll away
into a sunset fading on a silver screen?
Can you show the way?
Georgie sold us out today
For a pair of sneakers and a full week's pay
The landlord wants me out of town
Or else he gonna put you in the ground
Can we run away
To where blue skies make up all the scenery?
Can you show the way?
Save me Jimmy Dean, save me Steve McQueen
Wake me from this dream, show me what it means
Three runs down in the bottom of the ninth
If I could pick two guys to be on my side
It would be Jimmy Dean & Mr. Steve McQueen
The world is getting aweful strange
People get their faces rearranged
High cheekbones and a plastic nose
But I liked Mike when he was 10-years old
Can we turn it back
To the time inside our parents' photographs?
Can you bring it back?
Save me Jimmy Dean, save me Steve McQueen
Wake me from this dream, show me what it means
Three runs down in the bottom of the ninth
If I could pick two guys to be on my side
It would be Jimmy Dean & Mr. Steve McQueen
Just tell me yes or no
How does this story go?
Whether we take it fast or we take it slow
I hate to ask, but there's one thing I've got to know
The world has gone and changed on me
The way things were will never be
1 and 2 came crumbling down
We act as if they're still around
Can we move ahead
And forget about the images inside our heads?
Can we wake the dead?
Save me Jimmy Dean, save me Steve McQueen
Wake me from this dream, show me what it means
Three runs down in the bottom of the ninth
If I could pick two guys to be on my side
Four runs down in the bottom of the ninth
If I could pick two guys to be on my side
Five runs down, six runs down, seven runs down, eight
runs down
Nine runs down, ten runs down, I dunno how we're gonna
turn this game around...
