Текст (слова) песни: Nitty Gritty Dirt Band - The Dream
His fastball is fading, his sinker is gone, They sent him doun to the minors `cause he wore out his arm, but his eyes shine brighter than the young kids` it seems so he keeps on playing, holding on to the dream.
Lord knows that it ain`t for the money cause he`s broke almost every day, and it ain`t for the fame or the glory Guess he`ll do it cause he still loves to play Guess he`ll do it cause he still loves to play.
He`s been in the saddle since he was a kid the rodeo came but he keeps it well hid and someday he`ll have to set his pony free But `til he does he`ll be riding the dream.
Lord knows that it ain`t for the money, `cause he`s broke almost every day, and it ain`t for the fame or the glory guess he`ll do it cause he still loves to play; Guess he`ll do it, cause he still loves to play.
We ain`t getting no younger and that is the truth but these games we keep playin,` they`re our fountain of youth. From Boston to Boulder and down to Orleans from highlights to lowlife and everything in between
well I guess we could grow up and quit wearing our jeans but we still feel like playing and living the dream.
Lord knows that it ain`t for the money, `cause he`s broke almost every day, and it ain`t for the fame or the glory guess he`ll do it cause he still loves to play; Guess he`ll do it, cause he still loves to play.
