James Songtext
von John Paul White

Well hello, my name is James
Haven′t we already met
It seems we have by this photograph
Sitting beside my bed

Tell me a little about you
Tell me a little bout me
Old bits and pieces
With wrinkles and creases
Are all of my past I see

But I remember I was a marine
They bent me into a machine
Then spit me out - shipped me back south
Involuntarily


Hello my name is James
I don't believe I caught yours
I used to be great at faces and things
But they don′t stick like before
There's a woman out there in the hallway
The prettiest thing i've seen
It makes no sense
But she′d pass for the twin
Of the girl I gave my class ring

But I remember my GTO
I′d race it down rabbit trail road
But I gave that up when I had a pup
He'd be about your age or so

Well hello, my name is James
Haven′t we already met
It seems we have by this photograph
Sitting beside my bed
