| Lyrics: | Written by John Mellencamp
Henry worked at Sears or somehwhere,
Theo did, too.
They
both got themselves a van together;
Nineteen seventy-two, Ford.
Drove around all night long
playing music very, very loud.
Big noise, all the time;
Little legends in a little
town.
Moments of time they shared together.
Moments of time between two
friends.
Standing on street corners with shirts unbuttoned.
There was a moment in time they
swore they were friends to the end.
Couple of wild boys
They told me they could hear
the grass grow.
Theo used to say, hey Henry, man,
I'm screwin' this cat.
You're just
holdin' it.
I never knew what they was talking about
But they laughed like they both thought
it was funny.
Theo and weird Henry went chasing after something
And neither one of them
believing in nothing.
Moments in time they shared together,
Called themselves the |
