Keeping The Faith (12 Gardens Live) - Billy Joel[00:00:00]
If it seems like I've been lost in let's remember[00:00:11]
If you think I'm feeling older and missing my younger days[00:00:16]
Oh then you should have known me much better[00:00:21]
Cause my past is something that never[00:00:24]
Got in my way[00:00:26]
Oh No[00:00:28]
Still I would not be here now if I never had the hunger[00:00:31]
And I'm not ashamed to say the wild boys were my friends[00:00:37]
Oh Cause I never felt the desire[00:00:41]
Till their music set me on fire[00:00:44]
And then I was saved yeah [00:00:47]
That's why I'm keeping the faith[00:00:52]
Yeah yeah yeah yeah Keeping the faith[00:00:55]
We wore matador boots only Flagg Brothers had them with the Cuban heel[00:01:03]
Iridescent socks with the same color shirt and a tight pair of chinos[00:01:08]
Oh I put on my shark skin jacket[00:01:13]
You know the kind with the velvet collar[00:01:16]
And ditty-bop shades[00:01:18]
Oh yeah [00:01:21]
I took a fresh pack of Luckies and a mint called Sen-Sen[00:01:24]
My old man's Trojans and his Old Spice after shave[00:01:29]
Oh Combed my hair in a pompadour[00:01:33]
Like the rest of the Romeos wore[00:01:37]
A permanent wave Yeah [00:01:39]
We were keeping the faith[00:01:44]
Yeah yeah yeah yeah Keeping the faith[00:01:48]
You can get just so much from a good thing[00:01:55]
You can linger too long in your dreams[00:02:00]
Say goodbye to the oldies but goodies[00:02:05]
Cause the good ole days weren't always good[00:02:11]
And tomorrow ain't as bad as it seems[00:02:14]
Learned stickball as a formal education[00:02:16]
Lost a lot of fights but it taught me how to lose O K [00:02:22]
Oh I heard about sex but not enough[00:02:26]
I found you could dance and still look tough anyway[00:02:29]
Oh yes I did[00:02:34]
I found out a man ain't just being macho[00:02:38]
Ate an awful lot of late night drive-in food[00:02:42]
Drank a lot of take-home pay[00:02:45]
I thought I was the Duke of Earl[00:02:47]
When I made it with a red-haired girl in the Chevrolet[00:02:50]
Oh yeah [00:02:54]
We were keeping the faith[00:02:57]
Yeah yeah yeah yeah Keeping the faith[00:03:01]
You know the good ole days weren't always good[00:03:24]
And tomorrow ain't as bad as it seems[00:03:27]
Now I told you my reasons for the whole revival[00:03:29]
Now I'm going outside to have an ice cold beer in the shade[00:03:34]
Oh I'm going to listen to my 45's[00:03:39]
Ain't it wonderful to be alive[00:03:42]
When the rock 'n' roll plays yeah [00:03:44]
When the memory stays yeah [00:03:50]
I'm keeping the faith[00:03:55]
Yeah yeah yeah yeah Keeping the faith[00:03:58]
I'm keeping the faith[00:04:05]
Yes I am[00:04:08]
Keeping the faith[00:04:11]
