Lyrics

I've got a crazy little mama
Lord, she's my heart and soul
I don't even have to tell ya
She knows how to rock and roll

Well this crazy lovin' mama
Makin' everything all right
I don't even have to tell ya
She makes things seem outta sight
All right

Whenever I'm down
And nothings going right at all
I just think about my baby
And all I've got to do is call

When the evening's looking pretty
And the day's hanging out too long
I know my baby cares about me
Right or wrong

It took a long time to find her
It took a lot of laughs and tears
It took a long time to find her
It took me 22 years

I've got a crazy little mama
Said, Lord, she's my heart and soul
Yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah
I don't even have to tell ya
She know's how to rock and roll

Well this crazy lovin' mama
Makin' everything all right
Yeah
I don't even have to tell ya
She makes things seem outta sight
All right

It took a long time to find her
It took a lot of laughs and tears
It took a long time to find her
It took me 22 years
Oh my

22 years
22 years
22 years
22 years
22 years
22 years
22 years



Interpretation

From styxophrenic@hotmail.com:

I have a possible interpretation to 22 Years. John Curulewski was born in 1950. 1950 + 22= 1972. Since he found the person he was searching for, it could mean that he was married in 1972, and had Jamie, his son, in 1974. This info is found on the back of the Man of Miracles album. It says, "Welcome, Jamie!!!" One of the reasons he quit Styx, a year later, was to spend time with his family. That would have made Jamie one year old. Good enough reason!
