Have you ever been awaken by the crowing of a rooster |
|
While the night is still heavy on the ground |
|
And the voice of Uncle Ben seems to break the morning silence |
|
Bringing lights to windows all around |
|
Well it's time to rise and shine and start another hard work day |
|
Get the cows in and start the milking chores |
|
It's nice to think about it maybe even visit but I wonder could I live there anymore |
|
Something bout the smell of cornbread cooking on a wood stove |
|
Seems to bring a picture to my mind |
|
Of a little three room house with mama in the kitchen |
|
But she can't stop to talk ain't got the time |
|
She's a fixing dad his supper he's a working over time |
|
Tryin' to pay our bill at the grocery store |
|
It's nice to think about it maybe even visit but I wonder could I live there anymore |
|
As I think about my childhood and of my old hometown |
|
I don't really miss them like before |
|
It's nice to think about it maybe even visit but I wonder could I live there anymore |
