steve earle - no. 29 lyrics
i was born and raised here, this town’s my town
everybody knows my name
but ever since the gl-ss plant closed down
things ’round here ain’t never been the same
i got me a good job alright but some nights
take me to another time
back when i was number 29
i was pretty good then don’t you know, watch him go
buddy, i could really fly
everyone in town came, hip flasks, h-rn blasts
any autumn friday night
sally yelled her heart out push ’em back, way back
i was hers and she was mine
back when i was number 29
we were playin’ smithville big boys, farm boys
second down and four to go
bubba brought the play in good call my ball
now, they’re gonna see a show
but bubba let his man go i cut back, heard it crack
it still hurts me but i don’t mind
reminds me i was number 29
now, i go to the ballgames cold nights, half pints
friday nights, i’m always here
we got a pretty good team, good boys, strong boys
district champs the last three years
got a little tailback pretty quick, real slick
i take him for a steak sometimes
nowadays he’s number 29
i don’t follow rainbows, big dreams, br-ss rings
i’ve already captured mine
back when i was number 29
