[00:25.280]It was nothing but the hits in a room downtown
[00:28.273]They're noisy as hell but nice
[00:31.590]People don't usually get to play in there
[00:34.973]More than a time or twice
[00:40.124]You had your a regular spot
[00:42.411]They were even advertising your name
[00:45.715]Better than the usual thing you got
[00:48.740]Staying just ahead of the game
[00:52.935]Ahead of the game
[01:05.405]And I can't tell you one thing new
[01:08.591]About playing for the door
[01:12.015]Some of my dream is back there too
[01:14.788]With the sawdust on the floor
[01:19.692]We're worn out and weary, all of us
[01:22.778]But we know why we came
[01:25.922]Banged up and battered like this old bus
[01:28.904]Staying just ahead of the game
[01:32.457]Ahead of the game
[01:40.149]The sky's as big as nowhere
[01:44.355]Which is where we've been
[01:47.089]Left a dream behind there somewhere
[01:50.602]You've got to have a dream
[02:34.084]I've gave your buddy a ride to the train
[02:37.061]He was telling me he'd be back
[02:39.784]There was a red light shining, love in vain
[02:43.103]When we rolled across the tracks
[02:47.231]Barista bartender selling beat-up car
[02:50.645]Needs a ticket for a bus or a plane
[02:54.312]Singer songwriter heading for home
[02:57.136]Staying just ahead of the game
[03:01.751]Ahead of the game
