Testo Raised Right - Eli Young Band
Testo della canzone Raised Right (Eli Young Band), tratta dall'album 10,000 Towns (10 Years Deluxe)
2AM, mama walkin' in
Tossin' keys and tips, countin' ones and tens
Smell like coffee and cigarettes
How could I forget?
As she'd sing "Just one hug then it's back to bed"
Better not get back up again
Yeah
7AM was a diesel truck
Didn't always run, but daddy fired it up
That rattle backing out of a gravel drive
Was watching him leave most all my life
Didn't know we were living check to check
Same way they been living since the day they met
Wasn't easy, but I know
We were raised right
We were hard times
In a broke town
We were heads high
We were wild souls
We were lost prayers
We were don't know how
But we'll get there
Took some wrong turns but we all turned out okay
We were raised right
Eyes on the ball, butts in the pew
Never go to bed without "I love you"
Paper thin walls mom and daddy fought
Was always "Why you spending more than we got?"
But no one looked to mama like daddy did
We were latchkey kids
But we were always taken care of
'Cause all they cared was
We were raised right
We were hard times
In a broke town
We were heads high
We were wild souls
We were lost prayers
We were don't know how
But we'll get there
Took some wrong turns but we all turned out okay
We were raised right
We were raised right
Real life gets a little too real sometimes
We all run and just crash sometimes
Can't help but look back sometimes
Just think if they can make it, so can we
We were raised right
We were hard times
In a broke town
We were heads high
We were wild souls
We were lost prayers
We were don't know how
But we'll get there
Took some wrong turns but we all turned out okay
We were raised right (We were raised right)
We were hard times (We were hard times)
We were wild souls
We were lost prayers
We were don't know how
But we'll get there
Took some wrong turns but we all turned out okay
We were raised right
Yeah, we were raised right
We were raised right
Yeah, we were raised right
