Karaoké Somewhere in the Middle Cody Jinks

Couldn't ever dawned on me all the things that I would be I

I never really looked out quite that far

It's never been a simple thing to see the world with a young man's brain with

An old man's heart and restless soul

Yeah my family went broke in my eighteenth year

Dad took a job many miles from here that

That was alright by me

I was on my own

I had a band, found a job

Life was alright

I worked when I had to

We played all the time

Only got through that first year of college alright

But I learned more on the freight docks driving forklifts on the three o'clock A.M. shift

In the winter time

Man it got cold

Selling guitars on the west coast, goin' hungry

Chasin' ghost around and around we would go

I saw it all tending bar at night

Treatin' saints and sinners right

It's a good thing to do all the time

You never know who you're talkin' to

But always know who's watching you

Keep your feet movin' straight down the line

I've known a lot of real good men

Grad school or no school

I've called them my friends I'm

I'm somewhere in the middle and that's just fine

Though I don't give a damn how much money you make

If your life sure has pockets take all you can take I'm

Well I'm goin' out with nothin' like I came

'Cos I learned more on the freight docks driving forklifts on the three o'clock A.M. shift

In the winter time

Man it got cold

Selling guitars on the west coast, goin' hungry

Chasin' ghost around and around we would go

I saw it all tending bar at night

Treatin' saints and sinners right

It's a good thing to do all the time

You never know who you're talkin' to

But always know who's watching you

Keep your feet movin' straight down the line

But I learned more on the freight docks driving forklifts on the three o'clock A.M. shift

But always know who's watching you

Keep your feet movin' straight down the line

Yeah and somewhere in the middle is just fine

Yeah somewhere in the middle is just fine
