John Paul White – James lyrics
Well hello, my name is James
Haven't we already met?
It seems we have
By this photograph
Sitting beside my bed

Tell me a little about you
Tell me a little 'bout me
Old bits and pieces
With wrinkles and creases
Are all of my past, I see

But I remember I was a Marine
They bent me into a machine
And then spit me out
Shipped me back south
Involuntarily

Well hello, my name is James
I don't believe I caught yours
I used to be great
At faces and things
But they don't stick like before

There's a woman out there in the hallway
The prettiest thing I have seen
And it makes no sense
But she'd pass for the twin
Of the girl I gave my class ring

But I remember my GTO
I'd race it down Rabbit Trail Road
But I gave that up
When I had a pup
He'd be about your age or so

Well hello, my name is James
Haven't we already met?
It seems we have
By this photograph
Sitting beside my bed
