(Diamond)
Hey look at you all bright and shiny
got your whole life in front of you
and you think you’ve got all the answers
you know exactly what you’re gonna do
People ask me can I still do it
can you still do rock and roll
and that’s when I say
we got a gig tonight come and see us
we’ll blow you away
Many people have approached us
many of them dropped the ball dropped the ball
turn the page, start a new chapter
we’re still reachin’ for the gold
nothing fake or manufactured
The Longest Story Ever Told
longest story ever told
Hey, it’s been a few years since I’ve seen ya
you’re not as shiny
heard the word about your career
and you’ve used up all your contacts
no more free Heineken beer
Then there’s me the old rock soldier
I’ve worn out many things on the road
name a bar or a town I’ve probably played it
could be your Daddy for all I know
Hey you know we’ve been cheated
others tried we took ’em down took ’em down
turn the page and crack a bottle
and drink a toast to friends passed on
nothing fake or manufactured
the longest story goes on and on
Years go by no satisfaction
seems the dream is gonna die
then we write a new song
and we play it, it powers through
keeps the story alive and new
Hey you know we haven’t changed much
much will before this ends my friends
all we need is a happy ending
lord knows we do our share do it
nothing fake or manufactured
the longest story goes on and on out there
on and on out there
well it goes on and on out there out there
