Lyrics
IF YOU KEEP LOOKIN BEHIND
(UNCLE BOB?S SHANTY)
WHEN HE TURNED FIFTEEN HE WENT DOWN TO THE TRACKS
HOPPED A FREIGHT AND NEVER ONCE LOOKED BACK
HE KNEW DEEP DOWN EVERYTHING WOULD BE FINE
SO HE RODE THOSE RAILS TO THE END OF THE LINE
HE JUMPED THAT TRAIN SIGNED ON TO A FREIGHTER
SAID GOOD-BYE TO NO ONE I?LL SEE YA LATER
THE SEAS WERE ROUGH BUT HE HELD MY GRIP
SAW THE WORLD FROM THE DECK OF THAT SHIP
CHORUS
YOU?LL NEVER GET ANYWHERE IF YOU KEPT LOOKING BEHIND
THE PAST IS ALL YOU WILL FIND
HE KEPT LOOKING AHEAD AND THIS IN MIND
HE?D NEVER GET ANYWHERE IF HE KEPT LOOKING BEHIND
HOW MANY WOMEN HE LOVED HE COULDN?T RECALL
WHEN THE BOTTLES WERE LOW THE TALES GOT TALL
TIMES WERE TOUGH AND COME WHAT MAY
HE LEARNED ONE LESSON ALONG THE WAY
CHORUS
BRIDGE
WE AIN?T HERE FOR LONG SO YOU BETTER HAVE FUN
NO TIME TO WASTE ON THINGS YOU SHOULD HAVE DONE
IF YOU HAVE A DREAM YOU BETTER CHASE IT DOWN
IT?S HARD TO DANCE LYIN? UNDERGROUND
THE LIFE HE LED WAS ONE HELL OF A RIDE
THE LINES ON HIS FACE HE WORE WITH PRIDE
HE DIED AWHILE BACK WITH NO REGRETS
HE SAID THESE WORDS THAT I?LL NEVER FORGET
CHORUS
