Live Those Songs - Kenny Chesney

Saw him sittin on a sidewalk in Fresno
Braided hair and a tye-dyed t-shirt on
Talkin to himself about Vietnam
About the tour he did and the deal he got
He said this world ain\'t the same if you ask me.
If I could be somewhere else, I\'d tell you where I\'d be

I\'d be rollin\' on a river with Credence
Stealin\' kisses from Peggy Sue
I\'d be knee-deep in sand on a Panama beach
In the spring of \'72
I\'d be wastin\' away on the dock of the bay
Watchin\' the tide roll in
He said what I wouldn\'t give just to live those songs again.

Saw him workin\' the counter at Walgreens
With a new haircut and a Bachelor\'s Degree
Talkin\' to himself about his raw deal
Cussin\' Uncle Sam and the GI bill
He said This world ain\'t the same if you ask me
If I could be somewhere else, I\'d tell you where I\'d be

I\'d be rollin\' on a river with Credence
Stealin\' kisses from Peggy Sue
I\'d be knee-deep in sand on a Panama beach
In the spring of \'72
I\'d be wastin\' away on the dock of the bay
Watchin\' the tide roll in
He said what I wouldn\'t give just to live those songs again.
