Come on close I wanna start the show up by telling you A little bit about myself Bout my story
Gray hairs are the ribbons For a game of life well played And the wrinkles are trophies For the progress that I have made Any good that I've done so far Was probably just a mistake And if they're giving now credits For foolish hearts That's credit I'd gladly take
I can count all the people I call best friends on one hand Being someone people count on That's how I became the man
This is my story The life that I have found This is my story It's full of ups and downs It's a true story Of good times and of sorrow A brand new old story Of yesterday and tomorrow
But thanks to those Who laid the road before me Laid the road So I could tell my story
Every tree that ever grew Knew just which way to grow And every bird that ever flew Knew just which way to go I can count all the people I call best friends on one hand Being someone people count on Well that's how I became the man
Time is the bridge we cross To help us on our way Reminds us who we used to be
And where we are today
This is my story The life that I have found This is my story It's full of ups and downs It's a true story Of good times and of sorrow A brand new old story Of yesterday and tomorrow
Thanks to those Who paved the way before me And laid the road So I could tell my story Well time is the bridge we cross To help us on our way Reminds us who we used to be And where we are today
This is my story A life that I have found This is my story It's full of ups and downs It's a true story Of good times and of sorrow A brand new old story Of yesterday and tomorrow
This is my story Yes it is, yes it is It's my story It's full of ups and downs It's a true story Of good times and of sorrow A brand new old story Of yesterday and tomorrow
It's my story, hey, hey My story, hey, yeah A true story, hey, yeah
Thanks to those Who paved the way before me And laid the road So I could tell my story
