Story behind the song
Thinking about why I picked up the guitar and taught myself how to play and started to write and perform at 34 yrs. old instead of 20yrs. old. Just wondering why now and not later?
Lyrics
"A Day Ahead And A Dollar Gained" Written by: Curtis Beckman C 2008 All Rights Reserved VI His future's been as solid as the fall leaves on the trees the paths that he's taken have been littered with debris Started back in high school with the rocky road he took the school of hard knox instead of a hard college book He found music is his passion though time is not his friend he's asking himself why now and not back then Chorus Then he thanks god for a day late and a dollar short for his wife who's always been like a lighthouse on the shore For his time as a father he'd not trade for the chance at a million bucks a stage and thirty-thousand screamin' fans Yes a day late and a dollar short in his mind could remain though in his heart he knows it's a day ahead and a dollar gained VII Well the one who turned his head took his hand and set him straight his love his life his better half knew from their first date She blessed him with three children one like her and two like him her love's made tough so easy to support the four of them a reflection of himself there in his daughters eyes hoping that they follow their dreams to the sky Back to Chorus Bridge His passion is driven not sure the reasons why he's just another dreamer thats along for the ride He knows it may just be a passing summer storm or that cool breeze you wish could be warm Back to Chorus
