《The Mind of John J. Blanchard》歌词

[00:00:00] The Mind of John J. Blanchard - Tommy Shane Steiner (汤米·沙恩·斯泰纳)

[00:00:14] He had a stroke in '95

[00:00:18] They thought it best that he reside

[00:00:20] In a nursing home

[00:00:28] His family vowed they'd never leave him

[00:00:31] The last time they came to see him

[00:00:34] Was three years ago

[00:00:38] He spent his whole life providin'

[00:00:41] He was down to relyin'

[00:00:44] On medicare

[00:00:51] The nurses took a likin' to him

[00:00:55] They'd get his wheelchair out and push him

[00:00:58] On sunny days

[00:01:02] He couldn't walk he couldn't speak

[00:01:05] Seemed so far outta reach

[00:01:08] But in his mind as far as they know he could be

[00:01:16] Fly fishin' workin' on that fire bird engine

[00:01:22] Runnin' 99 proof moonshine 'cross that County line

[00:01:28] 321 and ignition off on some space shuttle mission

[00:01:35] Playin' QB for the cowboy's getting high on the crowd noise

[00:01:42] And the bright lights

[00:01:45] 'Cause deep inside things were rockin' in the mind

[00:01:51] Of John J Blanchard

[00:01:59] One afternoon in June

[00:02:02] A nurse saw his finger move

[00:02:05] She 'bout had a heart attack

[00:02:13] She went screamin' down the hall

[00:02:16] Hey it's a miracle ya'll

[00:02:19] I think he's comin' back

[00:02:23] The doctors all rushed in

[00:02:26] Said do you know what year this is

[00:02:29] How many fingers am I holdin' and where've you been

[00:02:37] And he said

[00:02:39] Fly fishin'

[00:02:41] Workin' on that fire bird engine

[00:02:44] Runnin' 99 proof moonshine 'cross that County line

[00:02:51] 321 and ignition off on some space shuttle mission

[00:02:58] Playin' QB for the cowboy's getting high on the crowd noise

[00:03:05] And the bright lights

[00:03:08] All this time things were rockin' in the mind

[00:03:14] Of John J Blanchard

[00:03:29] He had a stroke in '95

[00:03:32] They thought it best that he reside

[00:03:35] In a nursing home
