I read about a guy
|
when he was 23 years old
|
stood there three feet tall
|
man that's pretty small
|
|
but then he grew
|
to over 7 foot 4
|
where he found he
|
just couldn't walk no more
|
|
and mama had to go away
|
but daddy says i'll see her again
|
one day soon
|
when we go to heaven
|
|
and daddy had a hook
|
where his hand used to be
|
he said that hand weren't no good
|
for me anyway
|
|
all i want's a piggyback ride
|
to get to the other side
|
of this big beautiful world,
|
sleep on a big beautiful bed
|
with beautiful coulds
|
inside my head
|
|
for 30 hours
|
and 15 minutes
|
jimmy kissed his girl
|
in front of the whole wide world
|
|
on national tv
|
that's a long time
|
not to drink or eat
|
or take a pee
|
|
all i wants a piggyback ride
|
to get to the other side
|
of this beautiful workd
|
sleep in a big beautiful bed
|
with beautiful clouds
|
inside my head
|
