BACKSTORY
BUILD A BRIDGE * Most folks have had a break-up in life. This is one of those songs, but I always found instead of a "Pity-Party" realize - yes - life goes on and sometimes you just have to "BUILD A BRIDGE" and get over it !
LYRICS
HIDING OUT FROM THE WORLD TODAY
DRIVING SOMEWHERE ON A RAINY DAY
I REALLY AIN’T GOT NOTHING TO SAY
'CEPT YOU JUST BETTER STAY OUT OF MY WAY
GOT MORE IMPORTANT THINGS TO DO
I’LL BUILD A BRIDGE AND GET OVER YOU
NOW THAT I KNOW THAT WE’RE THROUGH
THERE’S ONLY ONE THING LEFT TO DO
THERE’S A HONKY TONK FAR FROM HOME
NOBODY KNOWS ME I’M ALL ALONE
TWO STEP SWINGIN ALL NIGHT LONG
SLAPPING LEATHER I’LL BE GOOD AS GONE
A LITTLE DRINKING ALL NIGHT LONG
NOT THINKING WHO’S DONE WHO WRONG
BUILD A BRIDGE AND JUST MOVE ON
I’M NOT THINKING JUST A DRINKING SONG
INSTRUMENTAL
YOU BROKE EVERYTHING IN SIGHT
KEPT US UP ALL NIGHT
NOT EVEN TRYING TO GET IT RIGHT
ALL YOU WANT TO DO IS FIGHT, FIGHT, FIGHT
HONEY THERE’S A BETTER LIFE
BURNING RUBBER AND DON’T THINK TWICE
I’D RATHER BE OUT THERE ROLLING THE DICE
THAN STANDING HERE PICKING APART MY LIFE WITH YOU
THERE’S A HONKY TONK FAR FROM HOME
NOBODY KNOWS ME I’M ALL ALONE
TWO STEP SWINGIN ALL NIGHT LONG
SLAPPING LEATHER I’LL BE GOOD AS GONE
A LITTLE DRINKING ALL NIGHT LONG
NOT THINKING WHO’S DONE WHO WRONG
BUILD A BRIDGE AND JUST MOVE ON
I’M NOT THINKING JUST A DRINKING SONG
