Listen to old John Going on and on
About his glory days
But then the ball slips through his fingertips
The seconds tick away
That's one football game
He'd love to replay
Then there's Ruby Jean
Well she can really sing
But she's stuck in this bar
She thinks some big wheel
Out of Nashville
Will come and make her a star
But who am I to talk
I'm the worst of them all
I'm the king of wasted time
Night after night
I spend wishin' that you were still mine
Just look at me now with my royal crown
In this place again
I'm still missin' you, I'm sill wishin' you
Would come ealkin' in
And I'd get that second chance
Of changin' my my past
Repeat Chourus
There's No Bigger fool
Then a lonely fool
Yeah that dreamer who
Still waits for you
Repeat Chourus
John Goes on and on
Ruby sings her son
And you're still gone.
