Intro :

H ow 'bout a tear

for the y ear of 1960

I watched the fins

of the C adillac f all

I remember Dad exp lained

about the Berlin W all

H ow 'bout a tear

for the t orment and the trouble

T hat was brewing in the A sian w ay

I wore a smile

like the f aces that surround L .A.

In the city of the lost and found

I t's hard to get a b reak

Hard to stop from getting turned around

A nd make the same mist akes

M y reputation's o n the line

T he final day of '5 9

B ut like the sun just w atch me shine

Tod ay

H ow 'bout a cheer for the p iano virtuoso

I practiced 61 m inutes a d ay

I could never reach the k eys

But it was all O K

H ow 'bout a cheer for the h umor in my brother

T hat could brighten up the da rkest n ights

I t's just another sign of l ove

Whenever we would f ight

It's all the same twenty years ago

A s it is right now

Like a tour at the closing show

W hen I take my b ow

M y reputation's o n the line

A t the start of '79

B ut like the sun just w atch me shine

Toda y

I 've played this part so m any times

S ince the end of '59

B ut like the sun just w atch me shine

Tod ay
