Glory Days

1.Glory Days (Bruce Springsteen) sözleri

Bruce Springsteen tarafından Greatest Hits albümünde söylenen Glory Days adlı şarkının sözleri.

I had a friend was a big baseball player
Back in high school
He could throw that speedball by you
Make you look like a fool boy
Saw him the other night at this roadside bar
I was walking in, he was walking out
We went back inside sat down had a few drinks
But all he kept talking about was

Chorus:
Glory days well they’ll pass you by
Glory days in the wink of a young girl’s eye
Glory days, glory days

Well there’s a girl that lives up the block
Back in school she could turn all the boy’s heads
Sometimes on a friday I’ll stop by
And have a few drinks after she put her kids to bed
Her and her husband bobby well they split up
I guess it’s two years gone by now
We just sit around talking about the old times,
She says when she feels like crying
She starts laughing thinking about

Chorus

My old man worked 20 years on the line
And they let him go
Now everywhere he goes out looking for work
They just tell him that he’s too old
I was 9 nine years old and he was working at the
Metuchen ford plant assembly line
Now he just sits on a stool down at the legion hall
But I can tell what’s on his mind

Glory days yeah goin back
Glory days aw he ain’t never had
Glory days, glory days

Now I think I’m going down to the well tonight
And I’m going to drink till I get my fill
And I hope when I get old I don’t sit around thinking about it
But I probably will
Yeah, just sitting back trying to recapture
A little of the glory of, well time slips away
And leaves you with nothing mister but
Boring stories of glory days

Chorus (repeat twice)

Assorted all rights, oh yeahs, come on nows, hoots, etc til fade

2.Glory Days (Just Jack) sözleri

Just Jack tarafından Overtones (2007) albümünde söylenen Glory Days adlı şarkının sözleri.

I'm feelin groovy
Kicking down the cobble stones
And there is music in every sight and every sound
No need for headphones
I'll tip my cap to the world
Even though I don't wear one
Grinning at the women in the salon
Getting their hair done
On the outside looking in
Like an aquarium
Spinning with the stars in the planetarium
Deliriously
Mysteriously
I'm feeling curiously marvelously
Super
Duper
Like Joss Stone
My heart melts like ice cream cones
Grinning like a dog digging up dinosaur bones
I used to be fossilized
But now I'm out of my shell
And I'm happier than w.....s with chivalrous clientele
This can't be real
I must be dreaming
Can somebody slap me
I'm feeling so mischievous
Original cheeky chappy
It must be ages
Since I felt satisfied
Just to be Just Jack
And just that, still in tact

Its just another one of those glory days
Jump out your bed
Shake your head
Clear the haze
Step out your house
And prepared to be amazed
It's just another one of those
Just another one of those
Just another one of those glory days
Jump out your bed
Shake your head
Clear the haze
Step out your house
And prepare to be amazed
It's just another one of those glory days

I'm so warm
New dawn
Reborn
New forms
And I'm thinking about my boys
Joe le chic, and Freshly Sean
And I know you're underrated
But one day we'll all make it
And walk around naked with our bollocks platinumed and plated
Anyway I'm off track
Gotta stop that
And get back to the high street
I need something to eat
Stop at the caf'
Coffee and a salt beef bagel
Yea I know I'm caned/Cain'd
But now I'm feeling able/Abel
I used to get so paranoid in places like this
Stayed in my house for days with my weed psychosis
My neurosis was thinking everybody is staring at my red eyes
And shifty expression
But now I'm past caring
And I can feel that destiny is on my side
And by the looks of things
Fate came along for the ride
Behind green skies I can see my girl's eyes
Damn it I'm in love with this planet
You gotta realize

Its just another one of those glory days
Jump out your bed
Shake your head
Clear the haze
Step out your house
And prepared to be amazed
It's just another one of those
Just another one of those
Just another one of those glory days
Jump out your bed
Shake your head
Clear the haze
Step out your house
And prepare to be amazed

Its time to look to the future
Just when I was getting
Used to
The humdrum
I realized in the depths of my depression that I really wanted to be someone
So lets smash the past like a tacky figurine
On the back page of a supplementary magazine
But for the time being bump your head to the beat
Sit back, put your feet up
And relax'

Its just another one of those glory days
Jump out your bed
Shake your head
Clear the haze
Step out your house
And prepared to be amazed
It's just another one of those
Just another one of those
Just another one of those glory days
Jump out your bed
Shake your head
Clear the haze
Step out your house
And prepare to be amazed
