Live those songs

Saw him sittin' on a sidewalk in Fresno...
Braided hair and a tye-dyed t-shirt on.
Talkin' to himself about Vietnam,
About the tour he did and the deal he got.
He said,\"This world ain't the same if you ask me.
If I could be somewhere else,
I'd tell you where I'd be...

[Chorus:]
I'd be rollin' on a river with Creedence.
Stealin' kisses from Peggy Sue.
I'd be knee-deep in sand on
A Panama Beach In the spring of '72.
I'd be wastin' away on the dock of the bay,
Watchin' the tide roll in.
He said,\"What I wouldn't give just to
Live those songs again.\"

Saw him workin' the counter at Walgreens...
With a new haircut and a Bachelor's Degree.
Talkin' to himself about his raw deal,
Cussin' Uncle Sam and the GI bill.
He said,\"This world ain't the same if you ask me.
If I could be somewhere else,
I'd tell you where I'd be... [Chorus:]

He said,\"This world ain't the same if you ask me.
If I could be somewhere else,
I'd tell you where I'd be...

[Chorus:]
