David Lee Murphy - 100 Years Too Late lyrics

(david lee murphy/dobie gray)

When the sun is dawnin' and he's just gettin' up

Starin' out over the mornin' through the steam off his coffee cup

He thinks about a woman whose love he still holds dear

A sweetheart he kept hangin' on for way too many years

It could've been so different with a family and a wife

But he was crossed between his feelings and that oklahoma sky

Another time and in another place

He might have rode with jesse james

And though he rides he can't out run his fate

'cause he was born 100 years too late

It's hard to imagine another world out there

As he alys beside a campfire up in only God knows where

But he feels the day approachin' when the kind of life he's known

Will only be in stories and sung about in songs

Another time and in another place

He might have rode with jesse james

And though he rides he can't out run his fate

'cause he was born 100 years too late

And he wouldn't trade one sleepless night beneath the pourin' rain

If he had it all to do over again he wouldn't change a thing

Another time and in another place

He might have rode with jesse james

And though he rides he can't out run his fate

'cause he was born 100 years too late
