Rock While I Can Rock - HUGElarge[00:00:00]
My father dead and gone he said that poor old stubborn man[00:00:04]
Spent his whole life arguin' with that red clay Georgia land[00:00:07]
Finally got so weak an' all he could not even walk[00:00:10]
It all went down from there an' I swear he could not even talk[00:00:13]
Hey life'll wear you down now dude an' time will take its toll[00:00:16]
Try'na rock while I can rock I'm try'na roll while I can roll[00:00:19]
My father met my ma they almost married on the spot[00:00:22]
Turned eighteen in church an' moved in right back on the lot[00:00:24]
An' all them work years later she's the only gal he'd known[00:00:27]
It might be fine for him but I got lightnin' in my bones[00:00:30]
I dreamed a thousand dreams I got travelin' in my soul[00:00:33]
Try'na rock while I can rock I'm try'na roll while I can roll[00:00:36]
They laughed at me at school an' said that I always ate too fast[00:00:39]
That's just what it got to when you'd always wound up last[00:00:42]
I've always been the smallest in a house a seven kids[00:00:45]
I never got my share back there no matter what I did[00:00:48]
Now I'm off an' runnin' boys with two good simple goals[00:00:51]
Try'na rock while I can rock I'm try'na roll while I can roll[00:00:53]
Well I'm sailin' off for England soon I'm workin' on a boat[00:01:14]
See this whole wide world before I'm old enough to vote[00:01:17]
I might write home to mama but I sure won't tell it all[00:01:20]
He grabbed his guns n' roses cap an' walked on down the hall[00:01:23]
On your feet an' fine he said and the next damn day you're old[00:01:26]
Try'na rock while I can rock I'm try'na roll while I can roll[00:01:29]
