lirik lagu sally mayes - meeting across the river
[verse 1]
hey, eddie, can you loan me a few bucks?
tonight can you get us a ride?
gotta make it through the tunnel
got a meeting with a man on the other side
and eddie, this guy, he’s the real thing
so if you wanna come along
you gotta promise you won’t say anything
’cause this guy don’t dance
the word’s been passed this is our last chance
[verse 2]
we gotta stay cool tonight, eddie
’cause man, we got ourselves out on that line
and if we blow this one
they ain’t gonna be looking for just me this time
and all we gotta do is hold up our end
here, stuff this in your pocket
it’ll look like you’rе carrying a friend
and remembеr, just don’t smile
change your shirt, ’cause tonight we got style
[verse 3]
jerry says he’s gonna walk
’cause he found out i took his radio and i hocked it
ah, but eddie, man, he don’t understand
that two grand’s practically sitting here in my pocket
and tonight’s gonna be everything that i said
and when i walk through that door
i’m just gonna throw that money on the bed
he’ll see this time i wasn’t just talking
then i’m gonna go out walking
[outro]
hey eddie, can you catch us a ride?
oh, thank you, you are wonderful
you’ve been wonderful
right back at you, uh huh
well, the reason i wanted to do this show
is because story time has become a really big thing around my house lately
and what i really love about it is, you know
i was very lucky because
the first person to tell me my stories was my daddy
and there’s something so right about
that chain of being able to tell my son
the stories that my father told me
my daddy was the most hopeful person i ever knew
he was a great believer in faith and redemption and second chances
he had a real flamboyant turn of phrase too
and he would say it and you’d laugh
and then you’d walk away and you’d think about it and go, “oh”
at the lowest point in my life he said to me
“as long as you got an angel on your shoulder and a dream in your pocket
you’re gonna be okay”
so with that in mind, this is for you, daddy
