(Richie McDonald/Ron Harbin/Don Pfrimmer)
Brothers Wilber and Orville Wright
Built wings out of wood and steel
Folks said that thing'll never fly
They said watch, I bet it will
We've been dyfyin' gravity now goin' on a hundred years
It was paper wings, faith and dreams
That's how we got from there to here.
A nickel brought a soda pop way back then
And a movie only cost a dime
He came home with a scar and a purple heart
She waited all that time
Today they'll cut a golden wedding cake
How'd they made it all those years
It had to be tough, they just said it was love
That's how they got from there to here.
[From: http://www.elyrics.net ]You either do or you don't believe
That it can or can't be done
An ounce of faith and a touch of grace
And it can happen to anyone.
Four boys, lotsa noise, two-car garage
Hey, turn those guitars down
They couldn't know that the world would grow
In time to love that sound
They headed out, in a beat up van
And a U-Haul packed full of gear
The road was long, but the will was strong
That's how they got from there to here.
Yeah, they got a bus but you can bet they'd walk
Just to hear another crowd cheer
It was a song and a prayer and a lotta luck and you
That got us from there to here...
