Story

(album: Spark - 2016)

Jimmy is a late night lover
Teresa is the homecoming queen
Randall is a high school football star
Just living that small town dream, yep
Jesse went and joined the Navy
after her and Terry broke up
Well, Charlie ran off to Vegas,
ran into a big long line of bad luck

[Chorus:]
Everybody got their good days, bad days, ups and downs
We're all on the same world, spinning around
Flying with the birds, sinking with the stones
Living on prayers, keeping up with the Joneses
Some got a little and some got a lot
Some of us are lost, some of us are not
But everybody got their moment in glory
Guess everybody got their story

Janice wants to write like Faulkner
Steven wants to sing like Bruce
Now, Dylan wants to smoke with Willie
And come to think of it, I do too, yeah
Sally's gonna be a momma, momma at the ripe age of 17
And my granddaddy's married to his sweetheart, he just turned 83

[Chorus]

Yeah, yeah, oh
Come on now
I said everybody got their ups and down
We're all on the same world, spinning around
Either flying with the birds, sinking with the stones
Living on prayers, keeping up with the Joneses
Some got a little, some got a lot
Some of us are lost, thank God some of us are not
But everybody got their moment in glory
Guess everybody their story, yeah
Yeah
Yeah, no, oh yeah
Everybody, everybody
Yeah, oh yeah
