Funny no not really How things can change so fast One minute you are in first place And the next you are in last Pikes and valleys Ups and downs In the game of life Onwards and upward Don't give up the fight Just a Jersey kid Paying for his sins Born on the wrong side of the tracks I Left home long ago and except for you never looked back Funny no not really How a memory makes up think LIKE A checked board kitchen floor Daffodils in spring YOU WERE A firecracker such a spark A smile the world should see She drove a beat up blue chevy car These were special things Just a jersey kid Salt in my skin Born Thursday at sunrise I left home long ago but I REMEMBER remember your smile It's a great big world Full of beautiful girls Why did I meet you It's a great big world Full of beautiful girls Why It's a great big world Full of beautiful girls Why did I meet you It's a great big world Full of beautiful girls Why why 20 Plus have come and gone I play guitar I write songs You still looked the same How can that be Well The years have been hard on me Searching for that melody Searching for the words to bring the light Just a jersey kid Your original sin Bay Boy Villas Rat I left home long ago Except for you I never looked back
