《Small Town Southern Man》歌词

[00:00:18] Born the middle son

[00:00:19] Of a farmer

[00:00:21] And a small town

[00:00:22] Southern man

[00:00:25] Like his daddy’s daddy

[00:00:27] Before him

[00:00:28] Brought up workin’

[00:00:29] On the land

[00:00:32] Fell in love

[00:00:33] With a small town woman

[00:00:35] And they married up

[00:00:36] And settled down

[00:00:39] Natural way of life

[00:00:41] If you’re lucky

[00:00:42] For a small town

[00:00:43] Southern man

[00:00:48] First there came four

[00:00:50] Pretty daughters

[00:00:51] For this small town

[00:00:52] Southern man

[00:00:55] Then a few years later

[00:00:57] Came another

[00:00:58] A boy he wasn’t planned

[00:01:03] Seven people

[00:01:03] Living all together

[00:01:05] In a house built

[00:01:07] With his own hands

[00:01:10] Little words with love

[00:01:11] And understanding

[00:01:12] From a small town

[00:01:14] Southern man

[00:01:17] And he bowed his head

[00:01:20] To Jesus

[00:01:21] And he stood for Uncle Sam

[00:01:25] And he only loved one woman

[00:01:28] He was always proud

[00:01:30] Of what he had

[00:01:32] He said his

[00:01:33] Greatest contribution

[00:01:36] Is the ones you leave behind

[00:01:40] Raised on the ways

[00:01:43] And gentle kindness

[00:01:44] Of a small town Southern man

[00:01:57] Callous hands told the story

[00:01:59] For this small town

[00:02:01] Southern man

[00:02:04] He gave it all to

[00:02:05] Keep it all together

[00:02:06] And keep his family

[00:02:08] On his land

[00:02:11] Like his daddy

[00:02:12] Years wore out his body

[00:02:14] Made it hard just to

[00:02:16] Walk and stand

[00:02:18] You can break the back

[00:02:19] But you can’t

[00:02:21] Break the spirit

[00:02:22] Of a small town Southern man

[00:02:26] And he bowed his head

[00:02:28] To Jesus

[00:02:30] And he stood for Uncle Sam

[00:02:32] And he only loved one woman

[00:02:37] He was always proud of

[00:02:39] What he had

[00:02:41] He said his

[00:02:42] Greatest contribution

[00:02:44] Is the ones you leave behind

[00:02:48] Raised on the ways

[00:02:51] And gentle kindness

[00:02:52] Of a small town Southern man

[00:03:17] Finally death came callin’

[00:03:19] For this small town

[00:03:20] Southern man

[00:03:23] He said it’s alright ’

[00:03:25] Cause I see angels

[00:03:26] And they got me by the hand

[00:03:30] Don’t you cry

[00:03:31] And don’t you worry

[00:03:33] I’m blessed

[00:03:34] And I know I am

[00:03:38] ‘Cause God has

[00:03:39] A place in Heaven
