Tekst :

Well he s eight years old he s got a flour sack cape tied all around his neck
He s climbing up on top the garage figurin? what the heck
He screws his courage up so darn tight, that the whole thing come unwound
He got a runnin? start and bless his heart, he headed for the ground

Chorus
Cause he?s one of those who knows his life
Is just a leap of faith
Gotta spread your arms and hold your breath
And always trust your cape

Well he s all grown up, he s got a flour sack cape, tied all around his dream
He?s full of piss and vinegar, ah, he?s bustin? at the seams
He licks his finger and checks the wind, it?s gonna be do or die
He wasn?t scared of nothin?, boys, he was pretty sure he could fly

Chorus

Now he s old and grey with a flour sack cape, tied all around his head
And he?s still jumpin? off the garage and will be til he?s dead
All these years the people said the fool was actin? like a kid
And since he didn t know he couldn t fly, well of course he did

Chorus

Tekst :

Some people say I m a no count, others say I m no good,
But I m just a natural born travelin man,
Doin what I think I should, Oh yeah,
Doin what I think I should.

Chorus
And I don t give a damn about a greenback dollar,
Spend it fast as I can,
For a wailin song, and a good guitar,
The only thing that I understand, Poor boy,
The only thing that I understand.

When I was a little babe, my mama said hey son,
Travel where you will, and grow to be a man,
And sing what must be sung, poor boy,
Sing what must be sung.

Chorus

Now that I m a grown man, I ve travelled here and there,
I ve learned that a bottle of brandy and a song,
The only ones who ever cared, poor boy,
The only ones who ever cared

Chorus

Tekst :

Well, our story starts in Texas, where he s tempered by the heat
That skinny Alvin boy believes his fastball can t be heat
So he brings it and he brings it and it passes every test
They re talkin he s a wild man might be the fastest in the West

Well, he s drafted by New York, he s gonna pitch up there in Shea
With those amazing Mets, he ll help them take it all the way
He gets a World Series ring, he stays modest, he don t boast
Now it s off to California, where he ll make history on the coast

Chorus:
Nolan Ryan, he s a hero to us all
Nolan Ryan, he stands straight, he stands tall
He don t mess around boys
He just throws a mean fast ball

Tom Morgan is the angel, gets Nolan in second gear
Then he pitches four no-hitters in about as many years
He s working for Gene Autry, they re calling him the Ryan Express
He throws one ball a hundred, now he s the fastest in the West

But after eight years on the left coast,
He says he wants to come home
So he signs on with the Astros,
He?ll bring magic to the dome
As he throws his fifth no-hitter,
They?re talkin about he might be the best

In Texas people know, he s the fastest in the West

Chorus

Now he s a Texas Ranger, but he don t tote no gun
He ll mow you down with the heater, you smell leather, hear it hum
He throws a sixth no-hitter, the Oakland A s just met Big Tex

Now they re gonna judge all the rest,
Boys, against the fastest in the West

Now let s count up some numbers, he s forty-three years of age
He s got 5200 strike-outs, six no-hitters to date
There s 57 shut-outs, right up against 300 wins
And on the very first ballot, the Hall of Fame s gotta take him in

I m a sentimental sap that s all
What s the use of trying not to fall
I have no will, you made your kill
Cause you took advantage of me

I m just like an apple on a bough
And you re gonna shake me down somehow
So what s the use, you cooked...

I guess you think it s fun
To laugh at her expense
And point out each mistake she makes
I front of all your friends
You figure she ll let it go by
Cause she loves you so
But, you know

Every time you throw dirt on her
You loose a little ground
She slips a little farther away

Behind the wheel just went along
I m tired of hearing the same old song
Look
I rule the night
No end in sight
I think I m going insane, oh yeah

Engines grind
I hit the red line

Uh huh. Got to, wanna, got to. wanna,
Raise your hand.
Raise your voice.
Raise your head.
Up off the desk.
Look who s here.
Well well well.
Guess it s time for show-and-tell.
Well what do you like
and what do you need?
How should I act
and who...
