J Just A Season

Just A Season

Lyrics: Jacques Levy, Roger McGuinn
Music: Jacques Levy, Roger McGuinn

Played by the David Nelson Band:

Dares and dreams and silly schemes and people going crazy
I was young and no song was sung that did not sound appealing
I'd have my fun with a shy girl and maybe catch a train
And I'd look back at her standing in the rain

Dirty hands and root beer stands and money like a river
Making deals to see how it feels to get more than you're giving
I'd have my fun with a gambling man, I'd bluff him with my face
And it's drinks for everybody in the place

If all my days was hills to climb and circles without reason
If all I was was passing time my life was just a season

Shouting crowds and mummers' shrouds and people going crazy
Always said what was in their heads it surely was amazing
I had my fun in the bull ring and never got a scar
It really wasn't hard to be a star

If all my days was hills to climb and circles without reason
If all I was was passing time my life was just a season
