Got her daddy¡¯s eyes and her mama¡¯s hair
|
That newborn baby lyin¡¯ there
|
A grandpa holds his first grandchild
|
That¡¯s a cryin¡¯ smile
|
|
In another town there¡¯s a long white dress
|
Little church crammed full to Sunday best
|
Bride¡¯s father walks her down the aisle
|
That¡¯s a cryin¡¯ smile
|
|
It¡¯s a goodbye kiss, first day of school
|
A doctor callin¡¯ with a good news
|
A sinner standin¡¯ in the pure
|
Getting born for the second time
|
|
It¡¯s snapshots laid out on the floor
|
Or a loved one back home from the war
|
Makes tears fall like rain from a sunny sky
|
That¡¯s a cryin¡¯ smile
|
|
Forty years he punched that clock
|
For a pat on the back and a gold watch
|
They called it going out in style
|
That¡¯s a cryin¡¯ smile
|
|
It¡¯s a goodbye kiss, first day of school
|
A doctor callin¡¯ with a good news
|
A sinner standin¡¯ in the pure
|
Getting born for the second time
|
|
It¡¯s snapshots laid out on the floor
|
Or a loved one back home from the war
|
Makes tears fall like rain from a sunny sky
|
That¡¯s a cryin¡¯ smile
|
|
A nursin¡¯ home has an empty bed
|
Four generations bow their heads
|
God welcomes home another child
|
Ain¡¯t that a cryin¡¯ smile?
