Text Book Lyrics – Lana Del Rey
Text Book Lyrics
I guess you could call it text book I was looking for the father i wanted back And i thought i found it in brentwood It seemed only appropriate You’d easily have my back
And then 3 was the issue of her I didn’t even like myself Or love the life i had And there you were with shining stars Standing blue with open arms You touched the detriment Most of the friends i knew already had
You’ve got a thunder bird My daddy had one two Let’s rewrite history I’ll do this dance with you You know i’m not that girl You know i’ll never be Maybe just the way we’re different Could set me free
And there we were screaming Black lives matter in the crowd By the old man river & I saw you saw who i am God i wish i was with my father He could see us in all our splendor All the things i couldn’t want for him
I screamed for them ah ah I screamed for them ah ah
Could we do this dance again Do you think if i go blonde We could get our old love back I guess this is really the end I never felt jealous before This year but i’m jealous now
People say we’re too much alike But maybe finally that’ll make it right In the end of all these sleepless nights
Other men i met felt right Would smile at you and stick a knife In your back finally I met you so i’m not wondering why
You’ve got a thunder bird My daddy had one two Let’s rewrite a story I’ll do this dance with you
You know i’m not that girl You know i’ll never be Maybe just the way we’re different Could set me free
There we were screaming Black lives matter in the crowd By the old man river & I saw you saw who i am
God i wish i was with my father He could see us in all our splendor All the things i couldn’t want for him
I screamed for them ah ah I screamed for them ah ah
Old man river keeps rolling With or without him Old man river keeps rolling Without him oh my old man Old man river keeps rolling oh
