Before I Die

(アルバム： All American Texan - 2016)

Before I die I wanna hit the Mississipi
In a boat I've yet to buy and take it out in the Gulf
Where the water meets the sky
To where nothing on God's green earth looks dry

And I wanna see that stadium in New York from a right field seat
Maybe catch a homerun when a new all-star goes deep
And pretend that's Maris and Mantle pointing up at me

While I can still breathe
While this old heart still has another beat
It's time I put some living to these dreams

Before I die, I'm gonna learn all about how man swallows pride
And find the strength to tell my daddy he was right
And tell mama I'm sorry about that night

Before I'm called up
I wanna be the kinda man that a woman wants to love
And find a side of me that's a different kind of tough
Who ain't ashamed to need the man above

While I can still breathe
While this old heart still has another beat
It's time I put some living to these dreams

And Lord I know
These are things I should have done a long time ago
And when I close my eyes I wanna feel at ease
And if I left right now I couldn't rest in peace

While I can still breathe
While this old heart still has another beat
It's time I put some living to these dreams

Before I die, I wanna hit the Mississipi in a boat I've yet to buy
Take it out in the Gulf where the water meets the sky
To where nothing on God's green earth looks dry
