Well this life that I've lead has took me everywhere
|
There ain't no place I ain't never gone
|
But its kind of like the saying that you heard so many times
|
Well there just ain't no plae like home
|
Did you ever see a she-gator protect her young
|
Or a fish in a river swimming free
|
Did you ever see the beauty of the hills of Carolina
|
Or the sweetness of the grass in Tennessee
|
And Lord I can't make any changes
|
All I can do is write 'em in a song
|
I can see the concrete slowly creepin'
|
Lord take me and mine before that comes
|
Do you like to see a mountain stream a-flowin'
|
Do you like to see a youngun with his dog
|
Did you ever stop to think about, well, the air your breathin'
|
Well you better listen to my song
|
And Lord I can't make any changes
|
All I can do is write 'em in a song
|
I can see the concrete slowly creepin'
|
Lord take me and mine before that comes
|
I'm not tryin' to put down no big cities
|
But the things they write about us is just a bore
|
Well you can take a boy out of ol' Dixieland
|
But you'll never take ol' Dixie from a boy
|
And Lord I can't make any changes
|
All I can do is write 'em in a song
|
I can see the concrete slowly creepin'
|
Lord take me and mine before that comes
|
'Cause I can see the concrete slowly creepin'
|
Lord take me and mine before that comes
|
