Big Star — текст песни (Adam Gregory)

I work at the Big Star on north 405
I make 6 bucks an hour
And I work steady nights
Well it might not be much
but it`s all that I need
In that little glass booth
in that highway to dreams

I was not that good of a student at school
But this life taught me lessons
that made me no fool
Oh my mom and dad raised me
by that golden rule
In a world that gets ruthless
a world that gets cruel

Fill`er up
let me check your oil sir
Cash or card
let me get your change
Just turn right
when you see that big church sign
Just go straight
and you`ll be on your way

I had me a girl once
and my ring she wore
But her father said she
could not see me no more
Oh I know it`d be different
if I weren`t so poor
So I`m writing these songs
trying to open some doors

Well that`s enough crying
over used to be`s
Got to write these songs
get that girl back to me
I`m a man with conviction
I`ve got things to do
When that sun starts rising
Oh, when that sun starts rising
my night shifts are through

Fill`er up
let me check your oil sir
Cash or card
let me get your change
Just turn right
when you see that big church sign
Just go straight
and you`ll be on your way
Just go straight
and you`ll be on your way

I work at the big stars on north 405
