A E D A
[Verse 1]
ToAmmy got off at the TeExaco
CDame bustin' in to NoArma's Cafe
Said come on man wEe gotta go
YDou know how those part girlsA hate to wait
Filled up his daddy's trunEk with ice and beer
YDeah he was always sAtealin' the old man's car
Radio never came iEn too clear
So I'd bDang out one on my piAece of junk guitar
[Chorus]
Yeah F#mwe ruledG from the blacktop
TDo the levee where the paArty never stopped
Yeah there was poEwer in the night
The spF#mirit was alive when wGe would sing
SAha na na nEa na na nDa na G
When We werAe kings
[Verse 2]
SitAtin' around the fire one niEght Tommy called my name
DI turned around he said hAey what do ya think
Had his arm around the prettiest gEirl I'd ever seen
DHe kissed her hard and took Aanother drink
I say you must be an aEngel puttin' up with this guy
SDhe laughed and said pAlay me some Rolling Stones
I couldn't let that chEance go by
Yeah ID sang her "You Can't Always GAet What you Want"
Repeat Chorus
[Verse 3]
TAhat was theE fall of '69
DI guess Uncle Sam wAas hedging his bet
Tommy's number came Eup he said "Hey I'll be fine"
"ID'll teach 'em a lesson theyA'll never forget"
Angel and I went to waEve goodbye
DI guess we'd always thought we'Ad see him again
You know I took her out after tEhat a couple of times
DWe always just wound up tAalkn' 'bout him
