|
About three miles up that run down road |
|
There's an old town dump with some fools gold |
|
Just waiting for a bandit's hand to steal |
|
What one soul lost I'd always find |
|
It's wild what some folk leave behind |
|
But a poor boys dreams can always make it real |
|
CHORUS: |
|
Cause I threw stones at broken bottles |
|
I washed my hands in God's rainwater |
|
I found treasure others wouldn't claim |
|
I threw stones at broken bottles |
|
Took what this life had to offer |
|
And I let it shine when others make it rain |
|
Let it shine when others make it rain |
|
Let it shine, let it shine, let it shine |
|
When others make it rain |
|
While driving through the promised land |
|
Out there in the drifting sand |
|
I saw a boy who looked at lot like me. |
|
As I rolled my window down |
|
I yelled across that one-horse town |
|
I said, don't give up boy, you've got the right to dream! |
|
(REPEAT CHORUS) |
