the resonant rogues - how far we've come lyrics

Loading...

[intro, spoken]
one, two, three

[verse 1]
i know a man in georgia
he said his friends, they aren’t the same
the people he knows are now keepin’ to their own
washin’ their sins away
’cause there ain’t no time for barbecues
or goin’ to the old ballgame
little chiclet’s got a doctor’s visit, now [?]

[verse 2]
i know a man in milwaukee
he said this town, it’s changed
his favorite bar is now a realty store
and his house is next door
now he’s workin’ double shifts
to pay his rent
the foreman says there’s lots of work to be done, buildin’ big homes
for the people outta town

[chorus]
and oh, how far we’ve come
yesterday’s lessons never hurt anyone
and i’d like to build
a foundation to grow old and die with my love
[bridge]
and oh, you want
to live like that
american dreams made of sand
big+top, show+stop retirement plans

[verse 3]
i went up to saint louis
made me some friends
they’re drivin’ old cars and playin’ guitars
singin’ songs of regret
’cause the things that used to bring them joy
wore out like guitar threads
twenty years, hustlin’ club gigs
they recall with a cigarette

[chorus]
and oh, how far we’ve come
yesterday’s lessons never hurt anyone
and i’d like to build
a foundation to grow old and die with my love
