Before I die |
|
I wanna hit the |
|
Mississipi |
|
In a boat |
|
I've yet to buy |
|
And take it out in the gulf |
|
Where the water meets the sky |
|
To where nothin' on |
|
God's green earth |
|
Looks dry |
|
And I wanna see |
|
That stadium in |
|
New York From a right field seat |
|
Maybe catch a homerun |
|
When a new all-star goes deep |
|
And pretend that's |
|
Maris and |
|
Mantle Pointin' up at me |
|
While I can still breathe |
|
While this old heart still has another beat |
|
It's time |
|
I put some livin' to these dreams |
|
Before I die |
|
I'm gonna learn all about how man swallows pride |
|
And find the strength to tell my daddy he was right |
|
And tell mama |
|
I'm sorry bout that night |
|
Before I'm called up |
|
I wanna be the kinda man that a woman |
|
Wants to love |
|
And find a side of me |
|
That's a different kind of tough |
|
Who ain't ashamed to need the man above |
|
While I can still breathe |
|
While this old heart still has another beat |
|
It's time |
|
I put some livin' to these dreams |
|
And Lord I know |
|
These are things |
|
I should have done |
|
A long time ago |
|
And when I close my eyes |
|
I wanna feel at ease |
|
And if I left right now |
|
I couldn't rest in peace |
|
While I can still breathe |
|
While this old heart still has another beat |
|
It's time |
|
I put some livin' to these dreams |
|
Before I die |
|
I wanna hit the |
|
Mississipi |
|
In a boat |
|
I've yet to buy |
|
Take it out in the gulf |
|
Where the water meets the sky |
|
To where nothin' on |
|
God's green earth |
