Lyrics
There's late night bars and honky tonks,
There's tall drinks and there's small,
At one time or another,
God knows i've tried them all,
I've bummed around from town to town,
For fifty years or more,
Now i'm sitting in a run bar,
With no place left to go.
I've travelled all around the world,
And slept beneath the stars,
Some of them i know by name,
Like pluto venus mars,
I've gazed upon the pyramids,
And those tombs where kings were found,
I stood on Berlin's busy streets,
That night the wall came down.
Chorus
But i could have been a movie star,
And live life like a king,
A big house back there in the hills,
And a long black limousine,
But i'm sitting in a run down bar,
And i know i'm to blame,
But i wouldn't swap my memories,
For all their wealth and fame.
I've been to see the Northern lights,
And i've sailed around the horn,
I felt a tear run down my face,
As i watched a life be born,
I've seen the birds of paradise,
And heard them sweetly sing,
If i'd my life to live again,
I would'nt change a thing.
Chorus
