True Blue
Journey of a Simple Soul: True Blue Reflections
Lyrics
Never been a millionaire
Expressing the speaker's lack of wealth or financial success.
And I tell you mama I don't care
Indicating the speaker's indifference to not being a millionaire.
Never gonna own a race-horse
Stating the speaker's unlikely ownership of a racehorse.
Or a fast back mid-engine Porsche
Referring to not owning a high-performance Porsche car.
Don't think I'll own a private jet
Rejecting the possibility of owning a private jet.
On the Stock Exchange I'm no threat
Disclaiming any influence or impact on the Stock Exchange.
So won't you help me make up my mind
Seeking assistance in decision-making.
Don't you think I'd better get myself back home
Suggesting a need to return home for clarity.
Sitting in the moonlight glow
Describing the setting of the speaker in moonlight.
Excuse me if my feelings show
Apologizing for displaying emotions.
Watching all the trucks roll by
Observing trucks passing by, possibly contemplating life.
Dreaming up an alibi
Creating a false excuse or story to justify actions.
You see, back home I'm considered the fool
Acknowledging a perception of foolishness back home.
But maybe they're right I don't know
Reflecting uncertainty about the accuracy of that perception.
So can't you help make up my mind
Seeking guidance in decision-making.
Don't you think I'd better get myself back home
Reiterating the need to return home for resolution.
Who cares
Expressing indifference or lack of concern.
Daddy says he'll buy me car
Quoting a promise from the speaker's father to buy a car.
To drive just as far as I need
Highlighting the freedom to drive as far as needed.
He wants me back at any expense
Criticizing the father's willingness to spend without thought.
He's got a lot more money than sense
Commenting on the father's wealth compared to wisdom.
Funny but now that I'm gone
Noting a change in attitude toward the speaker after leaving.
They all wanna be concerned
People back home suddenly showing concern for the speaker.
Oh please can you make up my mind
Pleading for assistance in decision-making.
Don't you think I'd better get myself back home
Reiterating the need to return home for a decision.
Just don't know what to do
Expressing confusion and indecision.
Maybe I'll walk, maybe I'll ride, maybe I'll never ever decide
Considering various modes of transportation without a decision.
Get out da way
Urgently demanding clearance to move.
I gotta get on home
Expressing the urgency to return home.
I gotta get home as soon as I can
Emphasizing the need to get home as quickly as possible.
I gotta get home as soon as I can
Reiterating the urgency to return home.
I gotta get home as soon as I can
Stressing the urgency to reach home at the earliest convenience.
