That's Why I'm Here

歌詞

Person to person And man to man I'm back in touch With my long lost friend Listen to reason And understand And think of me From way back when He said me and Melissa Well, we fell out of love Ran out of luck Seems like lightning struck I've been thinkin' of leavin' But I can't raise a buck James, I'm wondering Could I borrow your truck I said that's why I'm here (That's why I'm here) Got no better reason That's why I'm standing before you (That's why I'm here) That's why I'm here John's gone found dead He dies high he's brown bread Later said to have Drowned in his bed After the laughter The wave of the dread It hits us like a ton of lead It seems "learn not to burn" Means turn on a dime Walk on if you're walking Even if it's an uphill climb Try to remember that Working's no crime Just don't let 'em take And waste your time That's why I'm here (That's why I'm here) There'll be no more messes tonight That's why I'm here (That's why I'm here) Whoa, that's why I'm here This is an I.O.U.
