Lifetime to Prove - Br5-49[00:00:00]
My pockets are empty[00:00:00]
Though my wife has sent me[00:00:02]
To the store for some cigarettes and bread[00:00:04]
I started walking there got[00:00:08]
As far as the square[00:00:11]
Then the smell of beer went to my head[00:00:12]
The thing about beer it[00:00:17]
Can make a man hear[00:00:19]
Voices from days long since past[00:00:22]
And with every third drink[00:00:25]
It'll make you think[00:00:27]
That your youth will always last[00:00:29]
No matter which way you move it[00:00:33]
Takes a lifetime to prove[00:00:36]
To yourself I could have been more[00:00:37]
I got one foot in the door[00:00:42]
I just want one more[00:00:46]
I thought of a time[00:00:50]
When my future was mine[00:00:52]
It didn't matter what anyone said[00:00:54]
I was handsome and strong[00:00:58]
And when I walked along[00:01:00]
I stood erect and looked straight ahead[00:01:02]
But then I lost my fight[00:01:07]
Goin' to turned to might[00:01:09]
Somewhere along the line I lost my will[00:01:11]
And now I'm sittin' here my life full of beer[00:01:15]
And I try to pretend it's not real[00:01:19]
No matter which way you move[00:01:23]
It takes a lifetime to prove[00:01:25]
To yourself I have been before[00:01:27]
I got one foot in the door[00:01:32]
I just want one more[00:01:36]
These days I barely survive[00:01:50]
On lot number five[00:01:52]
In the mobile acres[00:01:54]
On the eastside of town[00:01:56]
I swore this kind of life[00:01:59]
I'd never lead[00:02:01]
I guess I let too many things[00:02:03]
Get me down[00:02:05]
If my pappy could see[00:02:07]
What they done to me[00:02:09]
I swear he'd march down there[00:02:11]
And make it all right[00:02:13]
But he's long since gone[00:02:15]
And I'm old enough now[00:02:17]
I should be able to fight[00:02:19]
My own fight[00:02:22]
No matter which way you move[00:02:24]
It takes a lifetime to prove[00:02:26]
To yourself I could have been more[00:02:28]
I got one foot in the door[00:02:32]
I just want one more[00:02:37]
I got one foot in the door[00:02:40]
I just want one more[00:02:45]
