lyrics

Oh, many years ago
I had a class that was much too hard and
So, I sat in the back
And drew skulls on my notebook
Oh, then she walked in the room
Hair slick with the glasses on
I wasn’t tough but I know she was
Put her finger to my lips
And took the front row
I’ll take the front row
Oh, more recently
I took a ride in a limousine and
So, they weren’t friends of mine
Still not, lemme tell you why
Oh, in vino veritas
Revealed backward thoughts
I’m not PC but still was uneasy
Hey driver, I’ll ride with you
In the front row
I’ll take the front row
I’ll take the front row
I’ll take the front row
All my life I didn't want the attention
Didn't know I had anything to say
Then I found I could speak in connection
I'm not far away
I'm not far away
I’ll take the front row
I’ll take the front row
Oh, it was yesterday
I stopped in to hear locals play and
So, I sat in the back
And drew sips off a cognac
Oh, it was a brilliant jam
Made me wonder who I am
I pulled people right off the bar
And we filled that empty floor
With a front row
I’ll take the front row
I’ll take the front row
All my life I didn't want the attention
Didn't know I had anything to say
Then I found I could spark in connection
Now I’m here to play
Now I’m here to play
I’ll take the front row
I’ll take the front row
I’ll take the front row
I’ll take the front row
