The Captain and The Kid - Elton John

[00:01.02]Elton John-The Captain And The Kid
[00:25.17]I've been out on this road some
[00:27.61]Can't help feeling I've been showing my friends around
[00:35.96]I've seen it growing from next to nothing
[00:38.89]Into a giant eating up your town
[00:48.14]Called up the tealeaves and the tarots
[00:50.7]Asked the gypsy what she sees in the palm of our hands
[00:59.35]She saw a mountain and wild deer running
[01:02.71]A crazy kid becoming a better man
[01:11.17]But we stuck around for the fireworks
[01:14.43]Waiting to explode
[01:16.64]Shaped our futures you a tumbleweed
[01:20.18]And me on a yellow brick road
[01:22.61]Pleasing the people some of the time
[01:26.09]For better or for worse
[01:28.21]An urban soul in a fine silk Suit
[01:30.92]And a heart out west in a Wrangler shirt
[01:36.65]And you can't go back and if you try it fails
[01:42.54]Looking up ahead I see a rusty nail
[01:48.42]A sign hanging from it saying "Truth for sale"
[01:54.22]And that's what we did
[01:56.58]No lies at all just one more tale
[02:01.01]About the Captain and the Kid
[02:10.14]We've been missing at times in action
[02:13.03]Can't imagine what he said he might do for you
[02:21.02]The devil got to come to the party sometimes
[02:24.77]But he never got to wear our shoes
[02:33.13]Oh we've conjured up what we created
[02:36.31]Way back then when I was standing up in six-inch heels
[02:44.69]Now you're riding off into the sunset
[02:47.99]And I'm still spinning like a Catherine wheel
[02:56.48]But we stuck around for the battle
[02:59.85]Waiting for a plan
[03:01.97]To turn you into the Brown Dirt Cowboy
[03:05.36]And me into a rocket man
[03:07.85]It pleases the people some of the time
[03:11.72]Digging into our roots
[03:13.72]But I got a brand new pair of shoes
[03:16.6]And you're on a horse in old cowboy boots
[03:22.09]And you can't go back and if you try it fails
[03:27.95]Looking up ahead I see a rusty nail
[03:33.79001]A sign hanging from it saying "Truth for sale"
[03:39.56]And that's what we did
[03:41.93]No lies at all just one more tale
[03:46.3]About the Captain and the Kid
[03:54.27]And you can't go back and if you try it fails
[04:00.09]Looking up ahead I see a rusty nail
[04:05.94]A sign hanging from it saying "Truth for sale"
[04:11.76]And that's what we did
[04:14.07]No lies at all just one more tale
[04:18.56]About the Captain and the Kid
