GWell the roof blew off the club in Oklahoma City, Cfireman said, "the show can't go Gon"
GSo we spent another night somewhere in New Mexico D7drinkin' till all our money was Ggone 
GWe had a day to kill so climbed up a mountain, Cwalked straight down the other Gside
GPicked up a hitchhiker on the way back to Taos, he said, "D7Thank you boys for the Gride"
- Chorus - A  
GIf I could separate what's real, from what I've been dreamin', CI could live to fight another Gday
GIf I'd a listen to my mom who said, "Don't be believin' D7everything them writers Gsay"
GThere's no line at the door and only thirty people Cbothered to advance Gpay
GIf I could separate what's real, from what I've been dreamin', D7I could live to fight another Gday

- Verse 2
We'd packed everything and we set it all up to play three songs on a radio show
But you never can tell if anyone's listenin' and I guess it don't kill us what we don't know
When we're packin' it up is hear Stu on the phone sayin',"Baby I'm livin' the dream..."
- Chorus - B  
If I could separate what's real, from what I've been dreamin', I could live to fight another day
If I'd a listen to my ma 'en she said, "Don't be believin' everything them writers say"
There's no line at the door and only twenty people bothered to advance pay
If I could separate what's real, from what I've been dreamin', I could live to fight another day
- Bridge Solo - 2
- Verse 3
We got to sell ten T-shirts and twenty CDs to get from  Stevenville to Houston town
Well there's people there who care a little 'bout me and you know they won't let the poor boy down
It's Five Twenty Nine Central Daylight Time when the five of us come stollin' in
With smiles all around 'cause in Seventy Six hour till we have to be leavin' again
