Step Brothers movie - Keeping the Faith lyrics
rate me
If it seems like I've been lost in let's remember<br>
If you think I'm feeling older and missing my younger days<br>
Oh, then you should have known me much better<br>
Cause my past is something that never got in my way<br>
Oh no<br>
<br>
Still I would not be here now if I never had the hunger<br>
And I'm not ashamed to say the wild boys were my friends<br>
Oh, 'Cause I never felt the desire 'til their music set me on fire<br>
And then I was saved, yeah<br>
That's why I'm keeping the faith<br>
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, keeping the faith<br>
<br>
We wore matador boots<br>
Only Flagg Brothers had them with the Cuban heel<br>
Iridescent socks with the same color shirt<br>
And a tight pair of chinos<br>
Oh, I put on my shark skin jacket<br>
You know the kind with the velvet collar<br>
And ditty-bop shades, oh yeah<br>
I took a fresh pack of Luckies and a mint called Sen-Sen<br>
My old man's Trojans and his Old Spice after shave<br>
Oh, I combed my hair in a pompadour<br>
Like the rest of the Romeos wore a permanent wave, yeah<br>
We were keeping the faith<br>
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, keeping the faith<br>
<br>
You can get just so much from a good thing<br>
You can linger too long in your dreams<br>
Say goodbye to the "Oldies But Goodies"<br>
Cause the good ole days weren't always good<br>
And tomorrow ain't as bad as it seems<br>
<br>
Learned stickball as a formal education<br>
Lost a lot of fights but it taught me how to lose O.K.<br>
Oh, I heard about sex but not enough<br>
I found you could dance and still look tough anyway, oh yes I did<br>
I found out a man ain't just being macho<br>
Ate an awful lot of late night drive-in food<br>
Drank a lot of take-home pay<br>
I thought I was the Duke of Earl<br>
When I made it with a red-haired girl in the Chevrolet<br>
Oh yeah, we were keeping the faith<br>
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, keeping the faith<br>
<br>
You know the good ole days weren't always good<br>
And tomorrow ain't as bad as it seems<br>
<br>
Now I told you my reasons for the whole revival<br>
Now I'm going outside to have an ice cold beer in the shade<br>
Oh, I'm going to listen to my 45's<br>
Ain't it wonderful to be alive<br>
When the rock 'n' roll plays, yeah<br>
When the memory stays, yeah<br>
I'm keeping the faith<br>
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, keeping the faith<br>
I'm keeping the faith, yes I am<br>
You know I'm keeping the faith, oh yes I am<br>
You know I'm keeping the faith, oh you are<br>
(FADE: You know I'm keeping the faith, oh yeah...)<br>
<br>
