lyrics

You've Got a Story

You've got a story, don't you?
I can see the miles in your eyes.
You've worked real hard to get where you are,
Yeah, you've worked real hard,
I know you're a star
You've got a story, don't you?

Worn around the edges and faded red:
Just the way I like it.
I can't say you look the way you did
the day that you were new.
Hey, that's okay, I've grown too.
I can fit with you.

You've got a story, don't you?
I can see the longing in your eyes
You've loved real hard to get where you are
Yeah, you've loved real hard,
I know you're a star.
You've got a story, don't you?

You've got a story, don't you.
I can see the mischief in your eyes.
You've played real hard to get where you are.
Yeah, you've played real hard,
I know you're a star.

Shadow in your shiny of your leather soul,
Just the way I like it.
You don't polish up the way you did
the day that you were new.
Well, I'm unfinished, too,
I can fit with you.
