Keeping The Faith歌词

[00:11.61]If it seems like I've been lost in let's remember
[00:17.17]If you think I'm feeling older and missing my younger days
[00:20.30]
[00:21.42]Oh, then you should have known me much better
[00:24.84]Cause my past is something that never
[00:27.09]Got in my way
[00:30.08]Oh... No
[00:31.52]
[00:32.71]Still I would not be here now if I never had the hunger
[00:36.33]
[00:38.33]And I'm not ashamed to say the wild boys were my friends
[00:42.01]
[00:42.69]Oh... Cause I never felt the desire
[00:44.94]Till their music set me on fire
[00:48.49]And then I was saved, yeah...
[00:51.99]
[00:53.42]That's why I'm keeping the faith
[00:57.04]Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah...Keeping the faith
[01:00.09]
[01:04.71]We wore matador boots only Flagg Brothers had them with the Cuban heel
[01:10.26]Iridescent socks with the same color shirt and a tight pair of chinos
[01:13.78]
[01:15.37]Oh... I put on my shark skin jacket
[01:17.87]You know the kind with the velvet collar
[01:20.30]And ditty-bop shades
[01:22.99]Oh yeah...
[01:24.49]
[01:26.23]I took a fresh pack of Luckies and a mint called Sen-Sen
[01:28.46]
[01:31.64]My old man's Trojans and his Old Spice after shave
[01:35.32]
[01:36.01]Oh... Combed my hair in a pompadour
[01:38.09]
[01:39.90]Like the rest of the Romeos wore
[01:41.71]A permanent wave, Yeah...
[01:46.70]We were keeping the faith
[01:50.63]Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah... Keeping the faith
[01:53.69]
[01:57.50]You can get just so much from a good thing
[02:02.62]You can linger too long in your dreams
[02:06.17]
[02:07.86]Say goodbye to the oldies but goodies
[02:11.60]
[02:13.91]Cause the good ole days weren't always good
[02:16.59]And tomorrow ain't as bad as it seems
[02:19.46]Learned stickball as a formal education
[02:20.10]
[02:24.71]Lost a lot of fights but it taught me how to lose O.K.
[02:27.96]
[02:29.02]Oh... I heard about *** but not enough
[02:32.27]I found you could dance and still look tough anyway
[02:34.51]
[02:37.28]Oh yes I did
[02:40.65]I found out a man ain't just being macho
[02:45.89]Ate an awful lot of late night drive-in food
[02:48.45]Drank a lot of take-home pay
[02:51.26]I thought I was the Duke of Earl
[02:53.57]When I made it with a red-haired girl in the Chevrolet
[02:55.87]
[02:58.93]Oh yeah...
[03:01.11]We were keeping the faith
[03:04.67]Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah... Keeping the faith
[03:11.97]Oh...
[03:28.26]You know the good ole days weren't always good
[03:30.81]And tomorrow ain't as bad as it seems
[03:33.75]Now I told you my reasons for the whole revival
[03:38.93]Now I'm going outside to have an ice cold beer in the shade
[03:43.35]Oh... I'm going to listen to my 45's
[03:44.05]
[03:46.54]Ain't it wonderful to be alive
[03:48.66]When the rock 'n' roll plays, yeah...
[03:53.84]When the memory stays, yeah...
[03:59.28]I'm keeping the faith
[04:02.65]Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah... Keeping the faith
[04:05.39]
[04:09.89]I'm keeping the faith
[04:12.89]Yes I am
[04:14.76]You know I'm keeping the faith, yes I am
[04:18.69]
[04:20.06]You know I'm keeping the faith
[04:22.62]......
