《Three Wooden Crosses》歌词

[00:00:00] Three Wooden Crosses - The Faith Crew

[00:00:11] A farmer and a teacher

[00:00:14] A hooker and a preacher

[00:00:17] Ridin' on a midnight bus bound for Mexico

[00:00:23] One's headed for vacation

[00:00:26] One for higher education

[00:00:29] An' two of them were searchin' for lost souls

[00:00:35] That driver never ever saw the stop sign

[00:00:42] An' eighteen wheelers can't stop on a dime

[00:00:47] There are three wooden crosses

[00:00:50] On the right side of the highway

[00:00:54] Why there's not four of them

[00:00:57] Heaven only knows

[00:00:59] I guess it's not what you take

[00:01:02] When you leave this world behind you

[00:01:06] It's what you leave behind you when you go

[00:01:12] That farmer left a harvest

[00:01:15] A home and eighty acres

[00:01:18] The faith an' love for growin' things

[00:01:21] In his young son's heart

[00:01:24] An' that teacher left her wisdom in

[00:01:27] The minds of lots of children

[00:01:30] Did her best to give 'em all a better start

[00:01:36] An' that preacher whispered

[00:01:38] Can't you see the Promised Land

[00:01:42] As he laid his blood-stained bible

[00:01:44] In that hooker's hand

[00:01:48] There are three wooden crosses on

[00:01:51] The right side of the highway

[00:01:55] Why there's not four of them

[00:01:57] Heaven only knows

[00:02:00] I guess it's not what you take

[00:02:03] When you leave this world behind you

[00:02:06] It's what you leave behind you when you go

[00:02:12] That's the story that our preacher told last Sunday

[00:02:18] As he held that blood-stained

[00:02:20] Bible up for all of us to see

[00:02:24] He said Bless the farmer and the

[00:02:26] Teacher an' the preacher

[00:02:30] Who gave this Bible to my mamma who read it to me

[00:02:39] There are three wooden crosses

[00:02:42] On the right side of the highway

[00:02:46] Why there's not four of them

[00:02:49] Now I guess we know

[00:02:52] It's not what you take when you

[00:02:55] Leave this world behind you

[00:02:58] It's what you leave behind you when you go

[00:03:04] There are three wooden crosses on

[00:03:07] The right side of the highway
