Stevie Jackson - Richie Now lyrics

He was my best friend at school He was handsome and cool Why Richie won't Richie say where is Richie now? The girls would all follow him home The bad boys would leave him alone Why Richie won't Richie say where is Richie now? He has every Beatle record and me I only had one The "Twist and Shout" EP from 1963 He talked of Rubber Soul and wonder would unfold At lunchtime we played our guitars We dreamed of being stars Why Richie won't Richie say where is Richie now? Worry, worry, worry, don't you worry Everything is sure to go our way Talk's never cheap and our thoughts are always streamed In our own mind Hurry, hurry, hurry, hurry, hurry Hurry, hurry, hurry on our way The past is behind us, it's also up ahead so don't delay" Though we dreamed the air of magic The magic failed to recognize us Tried to seize the day, the days got in the way They hurtled past, our plans all went astray We were so youthful and bold We never thought we'd grow old Why Richie won't Richie say where is Richie? Come back and play and we'll know where we're going Why Richie won't Richie say where is Richie Now?
