finale (tulsa '67) - jamestown revival & justin levine lyrics

[darrel, spoken]
when i stepped out into the bright sunlight, from the darkness of the movie house, i had only two things on my mind: paul newman and a ride home

[ponyboy, sung]
i’ve never been out of tulsa before
i wonder what it would be like
i’ve never known anybody to leave
most people get stuck here for life
i used to glorify how cool hand luke was free
he wasn’t tied to anything
i used to idolize the actors on the screen
i looked to newman like the king
and now look at what my brothers do for me
they’re the reason that i’m standing here right now
one thing is certain, i can say without a doubt
those heroes paved the way so i can finally make it out

darrel, you’re the toughest guy i know
just took me way too long to see
soda, you’re this family’s heart and soul
can you imagine how proud mom and dad would be

[spoken]
i can picture hundreds and hundreds of boys living on the wrong side of cities
boys with black eyes who jumped at their own shadows
hundreds of boys who maybe watch sunsets
who looked at stars and ached for something better
[sung]
and now i’m thinking ’bout the dallys of the world
always on the outside looking in
bruises on their eyes, wearing grease for their disguise
trying to look tough so they’re not beaten down again

[ponyboy & ensemble]
and everybody loves to judge us, but n0body lends a hand
they see grease and dirty clothes and never try to understand
that we all come from different places, we all start from different lives

[ponyboy]
but when they hear our story maybe we can change their minds

[spoken]
i wondered for a long time how to start
how to start writing about something that was important to me
and i finally began like this

[ponyboy & ensemble]
this is tulsa 1967

[ponyboy]
and it’s time this greaser’s story’s told
for the hopeless boy with the reckless grin
for the down*and*outs who can never win
on the outside looking in
looking down, johnny cade’ll smile again
he was
[ponyboy & ensemble]
just too d*mn good for growing old
and in his memory i stay gold
stay gold
stay gold
stay gold
tulsa 1967 (stay gold)
just one thing you need to know (stay gold)
tulsa 1967 (stay gold)
just one thing you need to know
stay gold
