Just Stories Lyrics

I've got a lot of stories to tell you about

This one I think you've never heard

What Emma did when she found out

Her lover broke his word

This next one's 'bout an uncle who had lots of dough

He bought anything that he pleased

We always wondered what he owed

Turns out so did the police

These are just stories in my mind

Of joy and hurt

They've been filling up my head over time

Take them for what they're worth

A different tale is next and something from back when

A girl I dated broke the law

And how she got her life back again

She did time and got strong

This happy story I don't think you've heard before

A friend who had a change of luck

He found gold underneath his porch

When it got hit by a truck

These are just stories in my mind

Of joy and hurt

They've been filling up my head over time

Take them for what they're worth

You'll see why I tell you this last one with a grin

About how tales can grow with you

With countless anecdotes to spin

You'll be a story, too

These are just stories in my mind

Of joy and hurt

Those we keep are like windows on our lives

To see just what they're worth
