Vaudeville Nanna and The Banjolele
|
Waiting for me and a rainy day
|
Trying to cross road, they all look like candy
|
Guitars behind glass that I wanted to play
|
|
I beg for one, oh, but dad's just a teacher
|
Could barely afford to buy me such things
|
I woke him up at 3 in the morning
|
Asked him to tune the extra two strings
|
|
They're the best days of my life
|
I can never get back
|
What will never be again
|
But I can close my eyes
|
And I can see them, ooh
|
|
My dear old mom, frustrated actress
|
Reluctant victory, writing with me
|
My first attempt at filling the pages
|
She was the angel, the angel you see
|
|
They're the best days of my life
|
I can never get back
|
What will never be again
|
But I can close my eyes
|
And I can see them, see them
|
|
I have this dream, we're all at the table
|
Sharing verses, stories and song
|
Vaudeville Nanna and The Banjolele
|
She hands it to me and I play along
|
|
The best days of my life
|
Are somewhere up the road
|
With my family and friends
|
I can close my eyes
|
And I can see them, see them
|
