Jackson Browne - James Dean lyrics

James Dean, James Dean I know just what you mean James Dean, you said it all so clean And I know my life would look alright If I could see it on the silver screen You were the lowdown rebel if there ever was Even if you had no cause James Dean, you said it all so clean And I know my life would look all right If I could see it on the silver screen We'll talk about a low-down bad refrigerator You were just too cool for school Sock hop, soda pop, basketball and auto shop The only thing that got you off was breakin' all the rules James Dean, James Dean So hungry and so lean James Dean, you said it all so clean And I know my life would look all right If I could see it on the silver screen Little James Dean, up on the screen Wondering who he might be Along came a Spyder and picked up a rider And took him down the road to eternity James Dean, James Dean, you bought it sight unseen James Dean, James Dean, you bought it sight unseen You were too fast to live, too young to die, bye-bye You were too fast to live, too young to die, bye-bye Bye-bye, bye-bye, bye-bye, bye, bye
