josiah and the bonnevilles - goin on lyrics

[verse 1]
well i went and did it again
i went and signed myself one of those dirty old record deals
those things are gonna be the death of me
but i took my money and i made my album
and i didn’t like it much but i kept on going
and i smiled and i reckon it’s time that i break free

[verse 2]
now i’m going down to get myself a job at a bar, yeah
and i’ll serve drinks to anyone who wants one
come on by
thought about moving down to mexico
getting a job washing dishes, you know
(?) any little senorita who don’t know nothing me
or where i’m from
wouldn’t that be something?
[chorus]
well i’m thirty one and i’m goin on
and i’m coming on, and i’m coming on
and i’m thirty one and i’m goin on
i ain’t turned myself into a big star yet
but i ain’t give up, the dream ain’t dead
i’m just goin on, i’m goin on

[verse 3]
well i’ve been working on my old honda motorcycle
this thing will run pretty good but it doesn’t wanna idle
i guess maybe it takes after me
and i ain’t never had a passenger ride on it
but i reckon i’ll throw my senorita on the back of it
and we’ll ride and we’ll ride and we’ll ride till we’re free

[verse 4]
time’s getting hard we can move back into my grandmas place
you know she sure would be glad to see my face
and i can fix up my grandpas house like i’ve been meaning to
well the rent’s pretty cheap
i guess you call it free
i just go and i pick up the groceries
and i go do all the little things she needs me to do
i love you grandma
[chorus]
well i’m thirty one and i’m goin on
and i’m coming on, and i’m coming on
and i’m thirty one and i’m goin on
i ain’t turned myself into a big star yet
but i ain’t give up, the dream ain’t dead
i’m just goin on, i’m goin on

[verse 5]
now i put on an old george jones song
and i sing and i cry and i laugh along
and i said, “george how did you know it was gonna be this way?”
and i know he’s been gone for a little while now
but i can feel him in the air somehow
and we drink and drive the blues away

[verse 6]
and i sit out in the garage in the good old dad
and i watch that tennessee sun go down
and i knew if i made it, i wouldn’t be with him today
so i just thank god for the time i got
and i don’t worry about a h+ll of a lot
and dad likes my new songs anyway

[chorus]
well i’m thirty one and i’m goin on
and i’m coming on, and i’m coming on
and i’m thirty one and i’m goin on
i ain’t turned myself into a big star yet
but i ain’t give up, the dream ain’t dead
i’m just goin on, i’m goin on
