Dyinâ All Young
Chuck Prophet (2000)
He didn t even get to see the summer settin , Dyin all young
He didn t even get to see the summer settin , Dyin all young
Well, the telephone rang off the hook while the sun was goin down
She never heard her baby callin now her baby ain t around
It broke his mama s heart something pulled him like the tide
Up on the banks of Methodonia laid down and closed his eyes
Summer nights ain t never gonna feel right Dyin all young, oh
[ Chorus ]
Wanted to be there in your future want you to see-me-when-you-look-back
Want to be around to see you glow, little cowboy shine like lighting through a crack
But you [] climbed back in that saddle for one more fatal ride
If I had-it-all-to-[] do it all again I d lock in you in your room this time []
Summer nights ain t never gonna feel right [] Dyin all young, oh
[ Chorus x2 ]
Well, I don t like [] anything I m seein [] I don t like [] anything at
all []
And when I [] come across your memory [] It always [] turns my skin to
crawl []
I [] know I should feel lucky, lucky I m alive
One day your [] love bloomed like a flower that flower up and died
We pump so much [] shit into this river, the river flows into the sea
Every-[] -day I think about you, could you ever think of me? [] Oh
[ Chorus ]
If [] you were here, I d pick you up I d [] make you say you d had enough
(He didn t even get to see the summer settin Dyin all young)
I d [] pat your skin pull out your hair. [] Why d you go along and leave me
[] here?
(He didn t even get to see the summer settin Dyin all young)
[] Dyin all young
(He-he didn t, he didn t, he didn t, he didn t)
[] Gonna meet your maker [] Dyin all young
(He didn t even get to see the summer)
[ Chorus x2]
