Willie's riding shotgun, Wayon's sleepin' in the back Billy Graham is preaching about Jesus Christ with the Man in Black Lennon's talking politics, Dylan's mumblin' on his phone Ol' Kristofferson says turn it up Merle that's a Tom Petty song Yeah No, Elvis ain't dead, he just got tired of the velvet and the press He's hangin' out with Emmylou and Gram Parsons on a boat out in Key West And speaking of Memphis, the best blues band in town Plays every Tuesday night, Stevie Ray and Jimmy tune it up and burn it down Just like my heroes I'm as free as the wind Singing those old songs just like they did back then Some are here and some are gone Old habits die hard and legends live on and on Somebody said they saw Janis Joplin and Kurt Cobain At a little dive thirty miles outside the east side of LA Sinatra and Sammy Davis, Buddy Holly and the Big Bopper Are all hangin' out at Night Hawks drinking whiskey with Eddie Hopper Just like my heroes I'm as free as the wind Singing those old songs just like they did back then Some are here and some are gone Old habits die hard and legends live on and on and on Legends live on Songtexte I had dream one night, one day I was at this South Texas cafe Playing 42 with Townes Van Zandt and Ernest Hemmingway We had Hank on the jukebox, burning that pipe tobacco slow My ol' man chimed in and said "Kids these days need to dig deeper to find their soul" Can I get an amen? Dig deeper to find your soul Better pick up that shovel and get to work Just like my heroes I'm as free as the wind Singing those old songs just like they did back then Some are here, some are gone Old habits die hard and legends live on and on Just like my heroes I'm as free as the wind Singing those old songs just like they did back then Some are here and some are gone Old habits die hard and legends live on and on and on Legends live on Legends live on Legends live on and on and on Legends live on Legends live on Legends live on and on and on And on and on and on Aus Songtexte Mania
