Danny O’Keefe - 01 - You Don’t Have To Be Right (2015)

Even the dreamers don’t dream many dreams anymore They’re luxury items nowadays hard to afford But don’t blame me I only am doing my job Taking the cash and giving the credit to God And smiling when they tell me to Hold it! Nice and steady You don’t have to be right You have to be ready I can’t believe nobody told you the news No one who’s playing for keeps is willing to lose Don’t hang your hopes in the closet like clothes you won’t wear They’re not out of style they just need a little repair And smile even though it’s hard to do And hold it, nice and steady You don’t have to be right You have to be ready They tell you it’s all done with wires I don’t think it’s true It’s all done with mirrors between me and you Ask what it’s worth to find out they usually say We don’t know the price how much were you willing to pay? To smile even though we tell you to Hold it! Nice and steady
