Jimmy Dean & Steve McQueen

Lyrics

[Verse 1] The world has gone and changed on me Destroyed my whole philosophy My faith was strong, it never shook One levee break was all it took [Pre-Chorus 1] Let me float away Into a sunset fading on a silver screen Can you show the way? [Verse 2] Georgie sold us out today For a pair of sneakers and a full week's pay The landlord wants me out of town Else he gonna put you in the ground [Pre-Chorus 2] Can we run away To a blue sky hanging on the scenery? Can you show the way? [Chorus] Save me, Jimmy Dean, save me, Steve McQueen Wake-a me from this dream, show me what it means Three runs down in the bottom of the ninth If I could pick two guys to have on my side It would be a Jimmy Dean and Mr. Steve McQueen [Verse 3] The world is getting awful strange People get their faces rearranged High cheekbones and a plastic nose But I liked Mike when he was 10 years old [Pre-Chorus] Can we take it back To the time inside our parents' photographs? Can you bring us back? [Chorus] Save me, Billie Jean, save me, Steve McQueen Wake-a me from this dream, show me what it means Three runs down in the bottom of the ninth If I could pick two guys to have on my side It would be a Jimmy Dean and Mr. Steve McQueen [Bridge] Just tell me, yes or no How does this story go? Whether we take it fast or we take it slow I hate to ask, but there's one thing I've got to know [Verse 4] The world has gone and changed on me The way things were is history 1 and 2 came crumbling down We act as if they're still around [Pre-Chorus 4] Can we a-move ahead And forget about the images inside our heads? Can we wake the dead? [Chorus] Save me, Jimmy Dean, save me, Steve McQueen Wake-a me from this dream, show me what it means Three runs down in the bottom of the ninth If I could pick two guys to have on my side It would be a Jimmy Dean and Mr. Steve McQueen, yeah, yeah, yeah [Chorus] Save me, Jimmy Dean (Oh, won't you save me?), save me, Steve McQueen (Save me, down on the road tonight) Wake-a me from this dream, show me what it means (I'm getting lonely without you by my side) Three runs down in the bottom of the ninth If I could pick two guys to have on my side [Outro] Four runs down in the bottom of the ninth If I could pick two guys to have on my side Five runs down, six runs down, seven runs down Eight runs down, nine runs down, ten runs down I don't know how we're gonna turn this game around, round, round [Vocalizing] Yeah, yeah, yeah
