Jonny James - 83 Lyrics




First time I ever put that jersey on
It fit me like a glove and all my nerves were gone
Underneath those Friday night lights was where I was meant to be
I can still hear Mama screamin' that's my boy number eighty-three

We didn't win too many games that year
Two or three if memory serves me right
But I learned so many lessons
Underneath those stadium lights

Yeah to most it was just a number, a way to tell us boys apart
But to me it was my pride and joy, where I'd leave my mark
The only place on earth where I felt free
Standing out there on that fifty yard line
Wearing number eighty-three

These days I traded in that jersey for this old guitar
Singing my songs down the boulevard
Yeah the lights have changed to neon but that's alright with me
Still standing up here singing songs about being free, being free

Yeah to some I'm just a dreamer bangin' on an old guitar
But to me this is my pride and joy, where I pour out my heart
The only place on earth where I feel free
Is standing up here underneath these lights
Singing through these six string

Yeah to some I'm just a dreamer bangin' on an old guitar
But to me this is my pride and joy, where I pour out my heart
The only place on earth where I feel free
Is standing up here underneath these lights
Singing to these six string
Standing up here underneath these lights
Y'all singing back to me
