The Old Man & Me

Well an old man said to me
In a voice filled with pain
Where you goin’ young man
Said I’m goin’ to fight a war
Gonna fight for my country
In some foreign land
He said the sun would never hurt you
Never harmed anyone
But you must realize
If you try to stare her down
She will win in the end
She will burn your eyes
She will burn them
I’ve seen a million faces
I’ve seen a million places die
But I wonder who will walk with me
When I get to Heaven
He said boy I was young once
Yeah I was tough
Sittin’ on Uncle Sam’s boat
Yeah I could kill the enemy
I could die on foreign streets
But I could not vote
But now you walk by me
You won’t talk to me
Say this is my fate
But every time you walk the streets boy
Most of them you meet
You see it’s you they hate
It’s you yeah
I’ve seen a million places
Seen a million faces die
But I wonder who will walk with me
When I get to Heaven
I hope I get there
Seen a million faces
Seen a million places die
But I wonder who will walk with me
When I get there
See this woman sittin’ next to me
She’s been there for a long long time now  
Yeah when I fell she picked me up
When I cried she wiped my tears
I thank God she’s mine
But when I leave this world
She won’t have anything
But her love for me
Because the man took everything else he  
Made me hate myself
So just let us be boy
Won’t you let us be
Seen a million places
Seen a million faces die
Seen a million mothers cry
Seen a million brothers dyin’ 
But I wonder who will walk with me
When I get there 
When I get to Heaven
Yeah when I get there
When I get to Heaven
Yeah when I get there
When I get to Heaven yeah
Oh when I get there 

 

 

Hold My Hand

With a little love 
And some tenderness
We'll walk upon the water

We'll rise above the mess
With a little peace
And some harmony
We'll take the world together
Take'em by the hand
'Cause I got a hand for you
I wanna run with you
Yesterday, I saw you standin’ there
Your head was down, your eyes were red
No comb had touched your hair
I said get up
And let me see you smile
We'll take a walk together
We’ll walk the road awhile, 'cause
('Cause I got a hand for you)

(I wanna run with you)
Won't you let me run with you and hold
(My hand)
Want you to hold my hand

(Hold my hand)
Anything you wanna be because
I wanna love you the best that
The best that I can
See I was wasted And I was wasting time
'Till I thought about your problems
I thought about your crimes
Then I stood up
And then I screamed aloud
Don’t wanna be one of your problems
Don't wanna be one of your crowd, no
('Cause I got a hand for you)

Sorry’s Not Enough

Hey little girl

Only Wanna Be With You

You and me
We come from different worlds
You like to laugh at me
When I look at other girls
Sometimes you’re crazy
And you wonder why
I’m such a baby
‘Cause the Dolphins make me cry
Well there’s nothin’ I can do
I’ve been lookin’ for a girl like you
You look at me
You got nothin’ left to say
I’m only mad at you until I get my way
I won’t dance
You won’t sing
I just wanna love you
But you wanna wear my ring
Well there’s nothin’ I can do
I only wanna be with you
You can call me your fool
I only wanna be with you
Put on a little Dylan
Sittin’ on a fence
I say that line is great
You ask me what it meant by
Said I shot a man named Gray
Took his wife to Italy
She inherited a million bucks
And when she died it came to me
I can’t help it if I’m lucky
I only wanna be with you
Ain’t Bobby so cool
I only wanna be with you
Yeah I’m tangled up in blue
I only wanna be with you
You can call me your fool
I only wanna be with you
Sometimes I wonder
If we’ll ever end
You get so mad at me
When I go out with my friends
Sometimes you’re crazy
And you wonder why
I’m such a baby yeah
The Dolphins make me cry
Well there’s nothing I can do
I only wanna be with you
You can call me your fool
I only wanna be with you
Yeah I’m tangled up in blue
I only wanna be with you
I only wanna be with you
I only wanna be with you
I only wanna be with you
