1019 - eric gales lyrics

Loading...

[ verse 1 ]

i made my grand entrance
in year 1974
the dirty south
called memphis
’bout 6:45 or so (am)

my momma laying here beside me
with the king james version in hand (my lord)
kneeled down by the end side
and gave thanks to the holy man (thank you, son)

they say i was a long time coming
but they welcomed me to the scene

but my momma looked at the doctor
and said to him
“give me my baby
so i can take him to
1019
take him back with me to 1019

that’s where it all started, y’all”

[ verse 2 ]
little child
four brothers
raised up
in the church just up the hill

and my daddy working for the man
tryna make a living in an 18*wheeler
always brought home the bacon
so we’d never have to go without some food to eat

so tired when he got home
he could barely stand up on his feet

[ chorus ]

and every now and then
i lay down and have a dream
i close my eyes, and it takes me back to 1019
it takes me back to 1019, yeah uhh
it takes me back to 1019
it takes me back to 1019

[ transition / spoken break ]

uhh, check it out y’all
[ chorus ]

and every now and then
i lay down and have a dream
i close my eyes
and it takes me back to 1019
it takes me back to 1019, yeah uhh

[ verse 3 ]

now it come to my music
and i was hooked before i was 4
grabbed my big brothers’ guitars
every time they walked out the door
(but they didn’t know it, huh)

and now my mother
two brothers gone to heaven
i can still clearly see their face

and every time i play my music
i can hear their warm embrace

[ chorus ]

and every now and then
i lay down and have a dream
i close my eyes
and it takes me back to 1019
it takes me back to 1019, yeah uhh
