The Golden Voice of Vin Scully Songtext

von Dan Bern

Tonight I feel so far away
So far away from you
What did you do tonight?
I'm driving my truck up and down the coast
From north of Seattle to the Mexico line
Right now I'm in San Bernardino
All day long it was 95 degrees
But at least tonight I'll get to hear
The golden voice of Vin Scully

I've been stuck in this going nowhere desk job
For too many months, it's time to move on
If I quit and just try to do my painting
I wonder if I will come up with the rent
I still root for the Yankees back east
Never did take to these local teams
But at least tonight I'll get to hear
The golden voice of Vin Scully

Ooh I do my share, I knock about
Ooh is anything ever gonna work out?

Sometimes I feel almost out of range
I head south of the valley and pick up the game
I pull off the road, jump out of the van
And lean against the hood still hot from the drive.
Trees fade out in the black of the night
Sometimes it don't hardly seem worth the fight
But at least tonight I'll get to hear
The golden voice of Vin Scully.
