Jerry Jeff Walker - Those were the days

Tekst :

We were wild and young and willing, to give up anything it took
To get to where we were going, you could read us like a book
Our nights were hot, filled with a lot, of lovers and dreams and songs
And mornings mostly found us in places we did not belong

But those were the days (those were the days)
Man those were the days (those were the days)
We listened to the songs Bob Dylan wrote
We sat there stoned and amazed
We forgot to eat, we forgot to sleep
Searching for the perfect line
So here s to the good old days, baby, one more time

I remember Jimmy saying, if he had two blues and a beer
He might get some sleep tonight, give his head a chance to clear
I reminded him of an old girlfriend singing at a bar called Slim s
And I recall him doing lot s of things that night,
But sleeping wasn t one of them

But those were the days (those were the days)
Man those were the days (those were the days)
We learned all the songs the Beatles sang
We even tried Purple Haze
We forgot to eat, we forgot to sleep
Searching for the perfect rhyme
So here s to the good old days, baby, one more time

We were wild and young and willing, we are still are in some ways
Every now and then we still have one of them good old days
And it makes me proud when I think out loud
About lovers and dreams and songs
And how it always kept me going and the best ones are never gone

But those were the days (those were the days)
Man those were the days (those were the days)
We learned all the songs by Hank and Lefty
There must have been a thousand ways
We forgot to eat, we forgot to sleep
And all but the very best lines
And even a few of those from time to time

But those were the days (those were the days)
Man those were the days (those were the days)
So here s to the good old days, baby, one more time

    Sorry

    Im so sorry
    ive been impossible I know
    So used to being on my own
    Living so wreckless
    tell me what you want me to do
    I know you want the best for me and you
    And I hope you understand
    That im trying to cope
    I want to be something
    Give me some more time and you ll...

    Was i right or wrong

    Like a restless leaf in the autumn breeze
    Once I was a tumblin weed
    Like a rollin stone, cold and all alone
    Living for the day my train would come
    I never cared for school or any golden rules
    Papa used to always...

    Anata wa naiteiru nemurenai yoru no yami ni kago no naka no tori no you fusagikonde
    Smites obfuscation

    Hitori ga kowai no? ishiki ga bunretsu suru no? mune no oku no itami ga mata mashitekite

    Akenai yoru wa tada kurushikute tsurakute itai kara

    Surreal

    On your own, when it all goes wrong
    Like you re in gaol
    Torn in two, threw the blame at you
    Nightmare prevails

    There is no guarantee
    One crazy heart like me
    Should I go curl up and die?

    Surreal
    Precious time is slipping away
    Reveal
    Don t go wishing...

    Thugz cry

    For the ghetto media
    Don t let the light skin fool y all
    I will fuck you up

    [Chorus: Bizzy Bone]

    This is what it sounds like, when thugz cry [3X]
    This is what it sounds like
    when thugz cry, when thugz cry
    This is what it sounds like, when thugz cry [4X]
    This is what it sounds...
