HALF OF LIFE IS SHOWING UP
Marc- Alan Barnette/Matt Casey
It was ten years out from Jefferson High
Here it was reunion night
Billy, Ed and Ray are commenting on the scene
There’s Lindall and Larry basketball stars
Made All state but now selling cars
Jimmy Buck married Susie Tuck, the homecoming queen
Up to the Bar comes Tommy Clark he was voted most likely to fail
He owns a chain of Whataburgers Billy asks’ him what the Hell
He say’s
Chorus
HALF OF LIFE IS JUST SHOWING UP
NOT QUITING WHEN IT GETS TOUGH
FINDING EVERYDAY INSPIRATION
ONE PART DREAM THE REST IS PERSPIRATION
OPPORTUNITY DON’T ALWAYS KNOCK
GOTTA THINK OUTSIDE THE BOX
DON’T SETTLE FOR JUST ENOUGH
HALF OF LIFE IS JUST SHOWING UP
Tommy keeps them mesmerized
When he’s goes back over his life
Say’s I started flipping burgers and cleaning grease
Lindall and Larry used to come in
Jimmy and Susie were every Tuesday at 10:00
But to tell you the truth they didn’t recognize me
First in was me, last one to leave, working 16 hour days
Time seems to fly, fore that day when I, had my own place
