Keeping the Faith Billy Joel

[Verse 1]
If it seems like I've been lost in "let's remember"
If you think I'm feelin' older and missin' my younger days, oh-oh
Then you should have known me much better
'Cause my past is somethin' that never got in my way, oh no

[Verse 2]
Still I would not be here now if I never had the hunger
And I'm not ashamed to say the wild boys were my friends, oh
'Cause I never felt the desire
'Til their music set me on fire

[Chorus]
And then I was saved, yeah
That's why I'm keepin' the faith
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Keepin' the faith

[Verse 3]
We wore matador boots, only Flagg Brothers had 'em with a Cuban heel
Iridescent socks with the same color shirt and a tight pair of chinos
Oh, I put on my shark skin jacket, you know the kind with the velvet collar
And ditty-bop shades, oh yeah

[Verse 4]
I took a fresh pack of Luckies and a mint called Sen-Sen
My old man's Trojans and his Old Spice aftershave, oh
Combed my hair in a pompadour like the rest of the Romeos wore
A permanent wave, yeah
