Lifetime to Prove - Br5-49[00:00:00]
My pockets are empty though my wife has sent me[00:00:01]
To the store for some cigarettes and bread[00:00:04]
I started walking there got as far as the square[00:00:08]
Then the smell of beer went to my head[00:00:12]
The thing about beer it can make a man hear[00:00:17]
Voices from days long since past[00:00:22]
And with every third drink it'll make you think[00:00:25]
That your youth will always last[00:00:28]
No matter which way you move it takes a lifetime to prove[00:00:32]
To yourself I could have been more[00:00:37]
I got one foot in the door I just want one more[00:00:41]
I thought of a time when my future was mine[00:00:50]
It didn't matter what anyone said[00:00:54]
I was handsome and strong and when I walked along[00:00:58]
I stood erect and looked straight ahead[00:01:02]
But then I lost my fight goin' to turned to might[00:01:06]
Somewhere along the line I lost my will[00:01:11]
And now I'm sittin' here my life full of beer[00:01:14]
And I try to pretend it's not real[00:01:19]
No matter which way you move it takes a lifetime to prove[00:01:23]
To yourself I have been before[00:01:27]
I got one foot in the door I just want one more[00:01:29]
These days I barely survive on lot number five[00:01:50]
In the mobile acres on the eastside of town[00:01:54]
I swore this kind of life I'd never lead[00:01:58]
I guess I let too many things get me down[00:02:03]
If my pappy could see what they done to me[00:02:07]
I swear he'd march down there and make it all right[00:02:11]
But he's long since gone and I'm old enough now[00:02:15]
I should be able to fight my own fight[00:02:19]
No matter which way you move it takes a lifetime to prove[00:02:23]
To yourself I could have been more[00:02:28]
I got one foot in the door I just want one more[00:02:32]
