Rick MacAllister - SOMEBODY LIKE ME

The days are long in this tired town
Everything has changed
Sitting on this old front porch
All I see is rain

Been through the good and the bad times
Joy and tragedy
But it doesn't really matter now
For somebody like me

Never really travelled much
But been to Santa Fe
Drank a coke and had a smoke
And then went on my way

But in a book or in a photo
I saw the world and the oceans
No need for a dream or a notion
For somebody like me

For somebody like
For like me

Had a wife and a family
And then became alone
In unexpected circumstance
They left for parts unknown

And with each and every sorrow
I didn't cry no more
The place where all the tears are made
Dried up long ago

And I feel like I'm still trapped in time
From dusk to dawn
To the county line

The years kept passing faster
Everyone got old
There used to be a general store
Then no one came no more

And like a leave in the autumn
They flew into the breeze
But it doesn't really matter now
For somebody like me

For somebody like
For somebody like
For like me
