[04:06.94][00:01.21]Blind Melon - Cheetum Street
[00:09.18]
[00:09.38]It was late one night in Southern Texas
[00:17.62]My dad was playing in a rock-n-roll band
[00:25.87]He took me along to a place called Cheatem Street
[00:34.12]My bags were packed
[00:36.21]I was ready to meet you for the first time
[00:41.77]Oh but a phone call would have been nice
[00:54.55]
[00:55.83]I guess you're stuck with what was given to you
[01:03.61]And the world couldn't change my spirit
[01:08.41]This will remain the same
[01:14.08]
[01:15.67]You were young and living like you wanted to
[01:24.82]I understand because I packed up and left just like you did
[01:33.44]At 17 you think you got the whole world in your hands
[01:40.55]Oh in so many ways you did
[01:48.16]
[01:49.03]I don't want to have you worry no more
[01:56.62]Let's forgive and forget and finish what we started
[02:02.91]So we can move on
[02:06.12]
[02:11.84]I want you to know I really needed you then
[02:17.04]And I can use you now
[02:20.04]I talked to you by listening to all of those stupid songs
[02:28.47]I would sit along side of the fence
[02:34.39]
[02:44.78]Now you're doing fine and you're gigging here and there
[02:53.74]It's been nice to know you for the past few years
[03:01.77]When you're living the same dream it's easy to read each other for sure
[03:09.53]Ohhh it could have turned out so different
[03:23.31]
[03:24.09]I guess you're stuck with what was given to you
[03:31.80]And the world couldn't change my spirit
[03:36.53]This will remain forever
[03:41.73]
[03:43.85]I don't want to have you worry no more
[03:51.43]Let's forgive and forget and finish what we started
[03:57.55]So we can move on
