Letra da Música Please Pardon Me de Jim Lauderdale

That big one over there he's a tough guy for a living
Till some meaner new guy comes along
If he's lucky there'll be someone there to say to him
Keep him in his place when he goes wrong

Please pardon me there's a part of me
That's wantin' to go free like it oughta be
Please pardon me

If I said I couldn't help myself for lack of better reasons
Is it worth the fall to make the climb
Cause in the bigger scheme of things what shatters your illusions
Seems like it's the right thing at the time

Please pardon me...

Everybody's alibi got the wings but just can't fly
[ guitar ]
Please pardon me...

Lots of folks have left so far I can't say that I blame them
Because of that ol' earthquake in the ground
Someday we'll all meet up again where there's many mansions
Till then I'm gonna miss 'em sticking round

Please pardon me...
Please pardon me...
