The Guess Who - Ballad of the Last Five Years lyrics

Gary lives with Rosie And Be Bop got something old and something new I got something fine for you every minute now If you wanna sit right down and stick it all right through. They were gettin' tired of Johnny and all the big boys from N.Y.C. They say "Jump on board pretty baby" And I don't know but it seems like it might be a pretty good buzz to me. They'll help you and they'll hurt you You're asked to leave so much behind They say forget about tomorrow And concentrate on everything you know you're gonna find. So move over red robin, Have you got room for one more that just can't seem to win ... There's no sense denying That's your best reason on Earth for crying Those days will never be 'round again. There's Jackie and there's Brian Then there's four, then there's five, and then a couple more You be a good boy and don't drink too much I'll show you something, maybe one trick Later on, maybe a couple more. So step right up and put your music where your mouth is The pretty boys can make room for one more that just can't seem to win There's no sense denying that's the reason they found you crying Your chance will never be 'round again. But I'll help you in the meantime Total up just what they're worth when they're gone If you don't get it right the first time I'll help you take one more crack at it much, much later on. 'Cause Gary lives with Rosie ...
