Back in a Few Songtext
von Tad Dreis

I was in school
Always caught up in dues
And you gave me lessons in pacing
We had a job
Moving boxes for Bob
And talking ′bout stock car racing
And once in a while
You'd show up in style
And joke that you wouldn′t be working

Say I'm afraid I mislaid all the parts that came through
And I'm ashamed but the blame has been shifted to you
Now if you look in the book you will find that it′s true
See you later, back in a few


Later that year
I was living in fear
Of someone I shouldn′t have cheated
And you came to me
And said "Son can't you see
If you run you are still undefeated"
And that would be fine
But this weekend I′m flying
So sorry but you gotta be working

Say I'm afraid I mislaid all the parts that came through
And I′m ashamed but the blame has been shifted to you
Now if you look in the book you will find that it's true
See you later, back in a few

Back in a few
We′ll be waiting for you
You had something to do with our story
Back in a few
Say hello Mary Lou
You remember don't you, I'm Miss Corey

And once in a while
You still show up in style
And joke that I shouldn′t be working
And once in a while
You still show up and smile
And say "Give me your hand boy it′s working, it's working"


But I′m afraid I mislaid all the parts that came through
And I'm ashamed but the blame has been shifted to you
Now if you look in the book you will find that it′s true
See you later, back in a few

Yeah I'm afraid I mislaid all the parts that came through
And I′m ashamed but the blame has been shifted to you
Now if you look in the book you will find that it's true
See you later, back in a few

Yeah I'm afraid I mislaid all the parts that came through
And I′m ashamed but the blame has been shifted to you
Now if you look in the book you will find that it′s true
See you later, back in a few

Yeah I'm afraid I mislaid all the parts that came through
And I′m ashamed but the blame has been shifted to you
Now if you look in the book you will find that it's true
See you later, back in a few

Yeah I′m afraid I mislaid all the parts that came through
And I'm ashamed but the blame has been shifted to you
Now if you look in the book you will find that it′s true
See you later, back in a few
