That's Why I'm Here

Person to person and man to man

I'm back in touch with my long lost friend

Listen to reason and understand

Think of me from way back when

He said me and melissa well we fell out of love

Ran out of luck seems like lightning struck

I've been thinking of leaving but i can't raise a buck

James I'm wondering could i borrow your truck

I said that's why i'm here

Got no better reason

That's why i'm standing before you

That's why i'm here

John's gone found dead he dies high he's brown bread

Later said to have drowned in his bed

After the laughter the wave of the dread

It hits us like a ton of lead

It seems "learn not to burn" means to turn on a dime

Walk on if you're walking even if it's an uphill climb

Try to remember that working's no crime

Just don't let 'em take and waste your time

That's why i'm here

There'll be no more message tonight

That's why I'm here

That's why I'm here

This is an IOU

I reckon' i owe you one now

Listen wendy and listen gloria

This'll be better tomorrow

Oh, fortune and fame's such a curious game

Perfect strangers can call you by name

Pay good money to hear fire and rain

Again and again and again

Some are like summer coming back every year

Got your baby got your blanket got your bucket of beer

I break into a grin from ear to ear

And suddenly it's perfectly clear

That's why I'm here

Singin tonight, tomorrow, everyday

That's why I'm standing here

That's why I'm here

This is the part about kitty and bim

He loved her and she loved him

Wake 'em up shake 'em up the middle of the night

Got to tell me everything's alright

He said that's why i'm here

You got me talking and walking like a natural man

That's why I'm here

That's why I'm here

That's right
