If You Hang Around Long Enough

If You Hang Around Long Enough

(альбом: Down By The River - 2009)

A beer bottle thrown across the room
Hits the wall behind my head and boom
There goes another fine day dream

A real model, a hero of my youth
A man that only sings the truth
Was just sitting down to talk to me

Said, son, the secret of my overnight success
Was hard work and luck for twenty years and nothing less

If you hang around long enough
If you can have a good time when times are tough
Then maybe, just maybe
You get around to figure it out
What you can do and do without
And you recognize the real stuff
If you hang around long enough

Well, a bar talk is politics and work
Women rule and men are jerks
And I say, what else is new

And the waitress is hot and the beer is cold
Feeling young and getting old
But I don't know what I'd rather do

The quarter drops, Merle Haggard sings The Way I Am
The people eye when they say they don't give a damn

And if you hang around long enough
If you can have a good time when times are tough
Then maybe, just maybe
You get around to figure it out
What you can do and do without
And you recognize the real stuff
If you hang around long enough

Some days I may not have a clue
Some days I may figure out a thing or two

And if you hang around long enough
If you can have a good time when times are tough
Then maybe, just maybe
You get around to figure it out
What you can do and do without
And you recognize the real stuff
You appreciate the real stuff
If you hang around long enough
Hang around long enough
