Legend In Your Own Time

Well I have know you

Since you were a small boy

And your mama used to say

My boy is gonna grow up and be

Some kind of leader some day

Then you'd turn on the radio

And sing with the singer in the band

And your mama would say to you

This isn't exactly what we had planned

But you're a legend in your own time

A hero in the footlights

Playing tunes to fit your rhyme

But a legends only a lonely boy

When he goes home alone

And although I know you

Still have the heart of that small boy

Well you lend it out far too much

And no one woman loving you

Can ever tell if you've been really touched

Then you turn on the radio

And sing with the singer in the band

And think kind of sadly to yourself

This isn't exactly what you had planned

But you're a legend in your own time

A hero in the footlights

Playing tunes to fit your rhyme

But a legends only a lonely boy

When he goes home alone

When a legends only a lonely boy

When he goes home alone
