Joe Ferguson forever Posted September 8, 2022 Share Posted September 8, 2022 I wished I was smarter I wished I was stronger I wished I loved Jesus The way my wife does I wish it had been easier Instead of any longer I wished I could have stood where you would have been proud But that won't happen now That won't happen now There's a whole lot of singing, it's never gonna be heard Disappearing every day without so much as a word somehow Think I broke the wings off that little songbird She's never gonna fly to the top of the world right now Top of the world Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cwater10 Posted September 8, 2022 Share Posted September 8, 2022 Levon wears his war wound like a crown He calls his child Jesus 'Cause he likes the name And he sends him to the finest school in town  Levon, Levon likes his money He makes a lot, they say Spends his days counting In a garage by the motorway  He was born a pauper to a pawn on a Christmas Day When the New York Times said, "God is dead And the war's begun" Oh, Alvin Tostig has a son today  And he shall be Levon And he shall be a good man And he shall be Levon In tradition with the family plan And he shall be Levon And he shall be a good man He shall be Levon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
