Lyrics
Pete Rose And Babe Ruth
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
I'll tell you how it went and all the time we spent trying to make something of us
Something we knew but never was
Laid faced down on the bed and spoke in tongues with the dead
The times you saw me lose my cool
The stares were blank, the words were cruel
But what if I was the problem the whole time?
Well, I'd beg forgiveness and oblige
The ground just opened wide and ate me whole
Why am I so happy I could die?
There were no words to say goodbye
The ground just opened wide and ate you whole
Figured they'd figure out soon they never put a man on the moon
And no one knows the truth ‘bout pete rose and babe ruth
What if you got there to see that it's not what you believed?
No blinding lights or smiling teeth
I'd tell you you were wrong all along and
You'd tell me that you hate me
I'm always looking for the answers and wondering why
The rules were ever made for us if we never abide
