lirik lagu air traffic controller - jimmy's song
[verse]
i’ve been workin’ on jimmy’s song
for way too long
yeah it was promised to him years ago
married his daughter i could do no wrong
but still the pressure’s on
and he will ask me every week or so
where are you going son?
what’ve you been working on?
i’ve got some ideas i think you would like
grab me a pen and paper
let’s see what i can shake up
i heard your story, boy, let’s sing about mine
[chorus]
did you think i would give up?
you done lost your mind
i still got some time
i still got some
shu gah gah do gah do gah do dooka do
[verse]
i joined the army after college, son
yeah that’s the way it’s done
cause every officer deserves a salute
and when my plane went down in vietnam
all i could say was d~mn
cause no one ever gave me a parachute
i sat there trapped inside
my seatbelt was too tight
sank to the bottom thinking this is how i go
wiggled myself around a bit
somehow i swam on out of it
i got to live to be this many years old
[chorus]
did you think i would give up?
you done lost your mind
i still got some time
i still got some
if you’re just about to give up
give it one more try
you might be surprised
you still got some
[bridge]
wooo
you still got some
wooo
i’ve been workin’ on jimmy’s song
wooo
you still got some
wooo
[verse]
not every veteran got a welcome home
my favorite boots got stolen
my own father sold my volkswagen bug
but i met a woman with a heart of gold
she could’ve had tom jones
but all she gave him was a kiss and a hug
swore i’d love her to the moon and back
40 years on the cul de sac
stroke, cancer and the heart attack
it was lookin bad
i was build to last you know
grandchildren smiling up at me
truth is that’s all i ever need
one day they’ll hear this and they’ll do what they’re told
shu gah gah do gah do gah do dooka do
[chorus]
did you think i would give up?
you done lost your mind
i still got some time
i still got some
if you’re just about to give up
give it one more try
you might be surprised
you still got some
you think i would give up?
you done lost your mind
i still got some time
i still got some
if you’re just about to give up
give it one more try
you might be surprised
you still got some
you still got some
shu gah gah do gah do gah do dooka do
