Comeback Songtext
von The BusBoys

This is the story of a man, a band and a game
The crowd had all left, the ending had been framed
It was winner take all and the outcome was never in doubt

It was the bottom of the ninth, two outs to go
We stepped up to the line and started to feel the flow
We knew right then that the headline was about to be changed

Call it a comeback, call it the big surprise
A comeback brings tears to the eyes
A comeback, a triumph of the soul
A comeback some dreams refuse to fold
They had counted us out but there′s been a turnabout
It's a comeback, all hail the king

The sun was setting, it was the very last stand
We all write our own scripts, the future in our hands
It was all or nothing and all started looking better to me

In a flashback, I remember the practice and the pain
A young man′s visions of the fortune and the fame
We had one more shot and the great ones never look back


It's a comeback, brought you to your knees
It's a comeback, listen to the big lady sing
It′s a comeback, were you the last to know about the comeback

Well, you can tune into our late great show
The boys made good in the end, let the party begin
Call it a comeback
Ah, call me anything you want but call me

In the end I remember what I learned as a boy
Your heart is always bigger than the size of any toy
It′s a long road to the top but it's shorter if you party along the way
I gotta call ′em like I see 'em and I see ′em coming fast

But I'm telling these jokes and that means I′m laughing last
We're rocking this house so hard I can hear the people saying
I can hear 'em say, "Did you hear about the comeback of the native sons"?

A comeback, got the ring of number one
A comeback, tell the girls to clear the track
′Cause it′s a comeback
Ah, the boys are comin' back
They had counted us out but there′s been a turnabout


It's a comeback
Ah, a comeback, brought you to your knees
It′s a comeback, listen to the fat lady sing
It's a comeback, were you the last to know about the comeback?
Well you can tune into our late great show

The boys made good in the end, let the party begin
Call it a comeback
Ah yeah comeback, comeback
Ah, comeback, comeback

Tell the girls to clear the track
And we′re comin' on back
It's a comeback
Comeback, comeback
Comeback, comeback
