《Lifetime to Prove》歌词

[00:00:00] Lifetime to Prove - Br5-49

[00:00:01] My pockets are empty though my wife has sent me

[00:00:04] To the store for some cigarettes and bread

[00:00:08] I started walking there got as far as the square

[00:00:12] Then the smell of beer went to my head

[00:00:17] The thing about beer it can make a man hear

[00:00:22] Voices from days long since past

[00:00:25] And with every third drink it'll make you think

[00:00:28] That your youth will always last

[00:00:32] No matter which way you move it takes a lifetime to prove

[00:00:37] To yourself I could have been more

[00:00:41] I got one foot in the door I just want one more

[00:00:50] I thought of a time when my future was mine

[00:00:54] It didn't matter what anyone said

[00:00:58] I was handsome and strong and when I walked along

[00:01:02] I stood erect and looked straight ahead

[00:01:06] But then I lost my fight goin' to turned to might

[00:01:11] Somewhere along the line I lost my will

[00:01:14] And now I'm sittin' here my life full of beer

[00:01:19] And I try to pretend it's not real

[00:01:23] No matter which way you move it takes a lifetime to prove

[00:01:27] To yourself I have been before

[00:01:29] I got one foot in the door I just want one more

[00:01:50] These days I barely survive on lot number five

[00:01:54] In the mobile acres on the eastside of town

[00:01:58] I swore this kind of life I'd never lead

[00:02:03] I guess I let too many things get me down

[00:02:07] If my pappy could see what they done to me

[00:02:11] I swear he'd march down there and make it all right

[00:02:15] But he's long since gone and I'm old enough now

[00:02:19] I should be able to fight my own fight

[00:02:23] No matter which way you move it takes a lifetime to prove

[00:02:28] To yourself I could have been more

[00:02:32] I got one foot in the door I just want one more
