When I was just a boy
I was walking through town
Saw a man playing a guitar, I've heard that sound
I told my mamma, that's where I'm bound
She said: Son, go dream the dream

I turned sixteen, I met Sally at school
Her sweet young body
Made me shake like a fool
I didn't have to ask daddy
He said: Boy, just be cool and go on

Dream the dream

Dream the dream (dream the dream)

You just seen the best thing
That you ever seen
Don't even think about it
Just dream the dream

So I got me a guitar
And a sweetest little girl
Got a tiger by the tail
After shakin' up this world
With a walk down the street
To know the flag's unfurled
I said: Come on boy
Let's dream the dream

And I got a little older
Priorities change
Seems the Sun never shines
Unless it's followed by a rain
So, I try to help some folks
By feeling their pain
I told 'em, go dream the dream
Dream the dream (dream the dream)

You just seen the best thing
That you ever seen
Don't even think about it
Just dream the dream

Now, I'm singin' and playin' on that stage every night
Me and Sally
You know we're doin' more than alright
And I could hear her whisper
When we turn out the light
She said: Darling, let's dream the dream

Dream the dream (dream the dream)
You just seen the best thing
That you ever seen
Don't even think about it
Just dream the dream

Dream the dream (dream the dream)
Make a life better than it's ever seen
Call the people that you love
Just dream the dream

Dream the dream (dream the dream)
You just seen the best thing
That you ever seen
Don't even think about it
Just dream the dream
Dream the dream (dream the dream)
You just seen the best thing
That you ever seen
Don't even think about it
Just dream the dream
Dream the dream (dream the dream)
You just seen the best thing
That you ever seen
Don't even think about it
Just dream the dream
