Marvin Hamlisch
Bob’s Song
Came home from them
Found the circle started
I turned around
I had a kid
A car
A wife
Before I knew it
There's a loan
And then a mortgage
Then a business
A ranch house
And a life
That's not a life
But Mister
I won't sit around just feeling sorry
For myself no sir I'll
Pitch right in and
Get on out and
Help somebody else
Run a car wash for the handicapped
Raise funds for the new town hall
Spend a weekend with a little league
And teach a kid how to play ball
And if I never get to see the world
I hope I live to see
I'll have someone else to get there
The pageant is first and foremost a celebration of the ideals, values, and strength of character that ensure this nation's future
And that sounds good
To me
