I'd do it all again

Well, the band was on its final break

When he came walking in

The lies that showed more than his age

He was drunk, worn and thin

He sat down behind the ol' piano

And he ran through a couple of notes

And he said, "Would somebody buy me a drink, boys

To kinda help me clear my throat?"

And he said, "What would you give to hear a song?

What prize do memories bring?

It ain't every day you get

To hear living legend sing"

I may forget a line or two

A few words now and then

It takes a drink to make me think

And live it all again

This gray you see don't bother Jerry Lee

And neither do these lines

I may have seen some better days, boys

But God knows, I ain't reached my prime

I've got some scars from a woman's war

And playing those one-night stands

Lord only knows, if I had the time

I'd do it all again

Yes, I could still make 'em dance

Like I did in times that's gone

And I can still make 'em cry

And I can touch 'em with a song

I can still yet turn 'em on

The way that I did back then

Lord only knows, if I had the time

I'd do it all again
