Ballad Of Larry Bird

by Vermont

on Calling Albany (2003)

Weather never comes in its infinite sums
It just hoes and hit hums
Like my life was through sodas and rums
Summer drinking with anyone

Say the word I will be there
I'm a straight shooter
But you don't care about Larry Bird

Remember my name we met at a bar
You were throwin' darts
And I was throwin' out hearts
Like shooting at cars
Now were kissing on in there after dark

Say the word I will be there
I'm a straight shooter
With curly hair like Larry Bird

Yeah yeah oh yeah
Yeah yeah oh yeah (2x)

I will be there say the word
I'm a straight shooter
Like Larry Bird like Larry Bird

Weather never comes
In droves or in drums
In the cities the slums
Just the bits and the crumbs now
The bits and the crumbs
You're all lovely I'm to come

Say the word I will be there
I'm a straight shooter
But you don't care about Larry Bird
I will be there say the word
I'm a straight shooter
Like Larry Bird like Larry Bird
Say the word and know that I will be there
I'm a straight shooter
But you don't care about
We'll have it out about Larry Bird
