Local Boy
Lyricist:Luke Crowther, Grant Marsh, Robert Pyne, Joel Stoker
Jimmy was a local boy but he's seen much more Than a change in the weather Sitting in a uniform of a three piece suit And the ribbons from his past
Looking for a little boy at the bar With the mouth who thinks he's clever now Dreaming of a day that he got home From the war to his childhood sweetheart
No, he don't need anyone, there's no one there for him Just a feeling of an empty place deteriorating
Jimmy was a local boy but he's seen much more Than I'm bound to ever A member of a dying breed That sat and wait as it all just falls apart
Dreaming of a day that's oh so long ago That he can't remember right There was a time a man could still be a man And be proud to use his heart Find more lyrics at ※ Mojim.com
No, he don't need anyone, there's no one there for him There was really only one, now he misses how she sounds
He frowns Line 'em up and he puts them down It's sad, this town Seems to fail to appreciate the man
No, he don't need anyone, there's no one there for him No, he don't feel anymore 'cause Jimmy's so thick skinned And a long, long time ago when he could break your heart There was really only one, now he misses how she sounds
He frowns Line 'em up and he puts them down It's sad, this town Seems to fail to appreciate what he's about
Line 'em up and he puts them down It's sad, this town Seems to fail to appreciate the man
