Lyrics:
he was strong and kind
And I believe he did his best
It wasn't easy for him
But he did all could
His son was different from the rest
It wasn't
mama had some faith to give
And they brought him to her and his mama named him Vance
He was sick a long time then
I used to sit by him
I'd rub his
together
Shot dice in the bathroom
Ya want trouble?
Well trouble ya found
Cause we diss ya, then issue
The critical beat down
He needed money
I would always
He's a giver and he'll give her the kind
Of attention that she's never known
He's a helper and he'll help her to
Open the doors that she can't on her
fans in New York loved him
There's no one above him
Here in the USA
I've heard 'em say ol' Eddie was the man
Oh how he could sing
Man did he swing
thought, he really had a hold on me
He really thought
(They thought they really could control me) he really had
This time around I won't be gettin' bit
started
When he rapped on "This Can't be Life"
And that was like, really the first beat of that kind that was on The Dynasty album
I could say that was
He's lazy, but he's lovable, we know him like a book
Anytime he can't be found, we know just where to look:
Gone fishin', there's a sign upon
as quiet as could be
He cut him down like a big
Oak tree when he said
It's been many years since we had to part
And I guess I learned his ways by heart
I
become of me?
How can I afford to see my sister in Chelsea
Or my cousin in Roxbury?"
But did he ever return?
No he never returned and his fate is
And he preached hell so hot that you could feel the heat
Daddy was an old time preacher man
Aunt Leona would get up to testify
As we'd sing, "In
ago, can't forget
Now I can lend him a ear or two how to stack these residuals
Tenfold, the liberal concept of what men'll do
Twenty on six, he didn't
Without a thought of turning back
I cannot help but wonder
What did He die for when He died for you and me ?
Made the sacrifice so that we could all be
the man and tried to remember
Just where it was that i'd seen his face.
Long ago, in a movie show,
He was like that man singin' bass.
Knew him by his
as we all know they can
He found other women, but she refused other men
But as fate would have it, they met again
She was on a down-hill slide, and he
what he wants to hear
One'll help by drownin' out the how'd you wind up here's
One'll hold him up when love has let him down
They do the best they can
Just because I ask a friend about him
Just because I spoke his name somewhere
Just because I rang his number by mistake today
He thinks I still
Well, the bible tells us about a man
Who ruled Babylon and all its land.
Around the city, he built a wall
And declared that Babylon would never
Mhm mhm mhm oh could he love the girl that I am now
Tonight I'm in his arms but he just don't seem the same
I cheated and I'm guilty my heart can
And when senoritas sing
He can hear them say
Did you know
Your garden's overgrown
And what is shown?
He could see
The writing on the wall
Ten feet
to say
How could he give her such diamonds as these on thirty a month cowboy pay
She paid no attention to what they said or what they did
Cause she never
Can we pretend that airplanes
In the night sky
Is like shooting stars
I could really use a wish right now (wish right now, wish right now)
Can we
the local bands down at the bar that he's the critic
Yeah, I can hook you up, I know everybody, in the business
He flunked junior high band he couldn't
much he cared
He always knew just what he could do
He always knew that his dream would come true

Well, he knew darned
Discuss these can he could he would he did he by the cathedrals Lyrics with the community:
