Bring It

Music and Lyrics by David Storey – Socan 2012

Got an old set of Boddams, a little heavy but they work just fine.
A Sherwood stick and a fiberglass mask, Sawchuk painted on the side.
They’re sitting in the back of my truck outside this Macs milk store.
Still damp from last night’s game, ya I’m ready for more

So come on buddy bring it, give me your best shot.
I ain’t going nowhere, give me all you got.
I’m going to shut you down and then I’ll shut you up.
Come on buddy bring it, just bring it.

For fifty bucks and sixty minutes I’ll be your best friend.
Taking care of business down here where the blue ice ends.
Only play for the money got no strings attached.
God I used to love this game, now it’s just a way of life.

So come on buddy bring it, give me your best shot.
I ain’t going nowhere, give me all you got.
I’m going to shut you down and then I’ll shut you up.
Come on buddy bring it, just bring it.

Sometimes I swear I can see the ghost of the old man.
Sitting under the heaters at the back of the stands.
He’s still waiting for me to wipe that empty look from his face.
Well he’s long gone now I’m alone in this frozen place.
I’ve faced every sharp shooting stranger and deaking duffer cross this frozen land.
I picked the space between these pipes to make my final stand.

So come on buddy bring it, give me your best shot.
I ain’t going nowhere, give me all you got.
I’m going to shut you down and then I’ll shut you up.
Come on buddy bring it, just bring it.
