I Kept The Beach Boys
From bus stop to pop star to your house for Christmas
With days that were numbered and samples for six cents
The chances that we took the odds makers gave us
Without much to save it seemed nothing could save us
They said... you'd go
God made you pretty and you let the world know
They said... you'd stay
But things don't just work out that way
The band took a plane off to Texas for three days
You wrote a postcard and we went our separate ways
I left for Memphis and you moved to Detroit
You took the That Dog and I kept the Beach Boys with me
Mantuve a The Beach Boys
Desde la parada de autobús hasta la estrella del pop a tu casa para Navidad
Con días contados y muestras por seis centavos
Las oportunidades que tomamos, las probabilidades que nos dieron
Sin mucho que salvar, parecía que nada podía salvarnos
Decían... que te irías
Dios te hizo bonita y dejaste que el mundo lo supiera
Decían... que te quedarías
Pero las cosas no funcionan así
La banda tomó un avión a Texas por tres días
Escribiste una postal y seguimos caminos separados
Me fui a Memphis y tú te mudaste a Detroit
Te llevaste a That Dog y yo me quedé con The Beach Boys
