Cassius Clay was hated more than Sonny Liston

Some like KK Downing more than Glenn Tipton

Some like Jim Nabors, some Bobby Vinton

I like 'em all



I put my feet up on the coffee table

I stay up late watching cable

I like old movies with Clarke Gable

Just like my dad does



Just like my dad did when he was home

Staying up late, staying up alone

Just like my dad did when he was thinking

Oh, how fast the years fly



I know an old woman ran a doughnut shop

She worked late serving cops

But then one morning, baby, her heart stopped

Place ain't the same no more



Place ain't the same no more

Not without my friend, Eleanor

Place ain't the same no more

Man, how things change



I buried my first victim when I was nineteen

Went through her bedroom and the pockets of her jeans

And found her letters that said so many things

That really hurt me bad



I never breathed her name again

But I liked to dream about what could have been

I never heard her calls again

But I like to dream
