Lyrics:
my tongue still hung in my throat
He was hitting just about a hundred and ten
And he said
Man what do you think of this boat
Well there was two semis
A very old friend came by today
'Cause he was telling everyone in town
Of the love that he just found
And Marie's the name of his latest flame
He won the lottery when he was born
Took his mothers white breast to his tongue
Trained like dogs color and smell
Walks by me to get to him
to
Remember when we met in Denver? You said if I write you, you would write back
See, I'm just like you in a way
I never knew my father neither
He used
what his calls might bring
With a cowboy like him, it could be anything
And she always expected the worst
In the back of her mind
He said, it's
He won the lottery when he was born
Took his mothers white breast to his tongue
Trained like dogs color and smell
Walks by me to get to him
With my long lost brother, Ace
Who had just caved in
And passed out on the floor
won't somebody he-elp me
You got to he-elp me
'Cause wine, too
brother
Walking sideways through the door
Was the same at school
He played the fool
Or took a back seat
While Simon ruled
He played by himself
than anybody else up here
Just like he used to down on earth
Yeah, well there's Elvis, they still call him the King
But we know they're not talking
up to say, "How ya doin' babe"
He's just that way
Leaves me little notes by my coffee cup
The sweetest poetry to me
Oh and every night he tells me
The Kid had just rode into town
And if he could take him he would be the fastest gun around
He was just a kid of seventeen but he had a lightin' hand
Laid back, hypnotized by the funky sound
People in the street see me bobbin my head
While I'm checking out the rapper and the rhyme that he said
I'm
Just like I said
I went to my little bitty brother, oh my, my little brother
I asked my brother
Brother, help me please, oh now
He turned me down
for you
For four hours and you just said, "No"
That's pretty bummy, man, you're like his favorite idol
He wants to be just like you, man, he likes
My brothers said that I was rotten to the core.
I was the youngest child, so I got by with more.
I guess she was tired by the time I came along,
on the page
Would it satisfy ya, would it slide on by ya
Would ya think the boy's insane? He's insane
I said I know it's only rock 'n roll but I like it
I
on the page
Would it satisfy ya, would it slide on by ya
Would ya think the boy's insane? He's insane
I said I know it's only rock 'n roll but I like it
I
He was just a carpenter by trade
He learned from his father at a very early age
There was something special in the man
There was much more to his
Through a flurry of bullets
He rescued the captain
They rode for the sunset
Just the story remains
And the grown-ups would tell us
You boys keep your
whatever you can
We are broken from within
Run to another land
Like water through my hands
Or is it just beginning
But if he's all you say
Would he
Just a lonely lonely Christmas
What a glad one it would be
If only my loved one
Would come back to me
Seems like he's been a thousand years
He said, "I'm a minister, a big shot in the state"
I said, "I just can't believe it, boy I think it's great
Brother can you tell me what is right
She said, "My brother's been in town, but he just left
And, I miss you! Give me a ring"
I still care
She's all that matters
I still love her just
right
Well the moral of this story is be good but carry a stick
Sometimes it looks like a guitar picker just can't tell what to pick
He was Frankie's
Discuss these just like he said he would by the williams brothers Lyrics with the community:
