Somewhere in the Middle - Cody Jinks

Couldn’t have ever dawned on me, all the things that

I would be I, I never really looked out quite that far

It’s never been a simple thing, to see the world with a

Young man’s brain with, an old man’s heart, restless soul

Yeah, my family went broke in my eighteenth year

Dad took a job many miles from here that

That was alright by me I was on my own

I had a band, found a job, life was alright

I worked when I had to, we played all the time

Only, got through that first year of college alright

But I learned more on the freight docks

Driving forklifts on the 3 o’clock AM shift

In the winter time, man it got cold

Selling guitars on the west coast

Going hungry, chasin' ghost around

And around we would go

And I saw it all tendin' bar at night

Treatin' saints and sinners right

Is a good thing to do all the time

You never know who you’re talkin' to

But always know who’s watching you

Keep your feet movin' straight down the line

I’ve known a lot of real good men, grad school or no school

I’ve called em' my friends I’m

I’m somewhere in the middle and that’s just fine

No, I don’t give a damn how much money you make

If your last shirt has pockets, take all you can take I’m

Well, I’m goin' out with nothin' like I came in

Cause I learned more on the freight docks

Driving forklifts on the 3 o’clock AM shift

In the winter time, man it got cold

Selling guitars on the west coast

Going hungry, chasin' ghost around

And around we would go

And I saw it all tendin' bar at night

Treatin' saints and sinners right

Is a good thing to do all the time

You never know who you’re talkin' to

But always know who’s watching you

Keep your feet movin' straight down the line

Yeah and somewhere in the middle is just fine
