The Bicycle

|
of the store just down the street It was the greatest bicycle Yeah, just every young boy’s dream with a light on the handlebars and flames painted on the side I said “Dad, I really wish that bicycle was mine.” Had those shiny chrome fenders Yeah, just for everyone to see And look what it says there dad it says it comes with a ten-year guarantee Yeah I would give anything Yeah, you could take everything I ever had No I never wanted anything so bad. Well I could see that he was thinkin’ but was it “yes” or was it “no”. Was it “Let’s talk about it later” or maybe a “Maybe so”. I said “Dad I’d do anything, no I won’t ask you for nothin’ for the rest of my life Oh I just really want that bike. Cross my heart and hope to die, Dad, I would stick a needle in my eye.” |
