Текст песни The Mind of John J. Blanchard

(Chris Wallin/Anthony Smith)

He had a stroke in '95

They thought it best that he reside

In a nursing home

His family vowed they'd never leave him

Last time they came to see him

Was three years ago

He spent his whole life providin'

Now he was down to relyin'

On medicare

The nurses took a likin' to him

They'd get his wheelchair out and push him

On sunny days

He couldn't walk, he couldn't speak

Seemed so far outta reach

But in his mind as far as they know he could be

Fly fishin', workin' on that Firebird engine

Runnin' 99 proof moonshine cross that county line

3,2,1 and ignition, off on some space shuttle mission

Playin' QB for the Cowboy's getting high on the crowd noise

And the bright lights

'Cause deep inside things were rockin' in the mindTommy Shane Steiner - The Mind of John J. Blanchard - http://ru.motolyrics.com/tommy-shane-steiner/the-mind-of-john-j-blanchard-lyrics.html

Of John J. Blanchard

One afternoon in June

A nurse saw his finger move

She bout had a heart attack

Went screamin' down the hall

"Hey it's a miracle ya'll

I think he's comin' back"

The doctors all rushed in

Said do you know what year this is

How many fingers am I holdin' and where've you been

And he said

Fly fishin', workin' on that Firebird engine

Runnin' 99 proof moonshine cross that county line

3,2,1 and ignition, off on some space shuttle mission

Playin' QB for the Cowboy's getting high on the crowd noise

And the bright lights

'Cause deep inside things were rockin' in the mind

Of John J. Blanchard

He had a stroke in '95

They thought it best that he reside

In a nursing home
