Well the band was on its final break When he came walking in The lines that showed more than his age He was drunk worn and thin He sat down behind the ol' piano And he ran through a couple of notes And he said would somebody buy me a drink boys To kinda help me clear my throat And he said what would you give to hear a song What prize do memories bring It ain't every day you get to hear A living legend sing I may forget a line or two A few words now and then It takes a drink to make me think And live it all again This gray you see don't bother Jerry Lee And neither do these lines I may have seen some better days boys But God knows I ain't reached my prime I've got some scars from a woman's war And playing those one-night stands Lord only knows if I had the time I'd do it all again Yes I could still make 'em dance Like I did in San Antone And I can still make 'em cry And I can touch 'em with a song I can still yet turn 'em on The way that I did back then Lord only knows if I had the time I'd do it all again
