Bill Anderson - This Land The Lord And Me слова песни
I never knew my mother and the closest that I cameWas a picture that my daddy showed to meWhen he held it in two calloused hands and told me son don`t cryThis is how the Lord intended things to beDaddy told me mom grew weaker on the night that I was bornHow she sufferend and the doctor didn`t comeAnd when daddy told his Maker Lord if it be Thy will please take herHow the good Lord took his wife and gave a sonAs a kid I watched my daddy carve a living from the landThen when nighttime came he held me on his kneeAnd prayed the Lord would let him live till I became a manMy daddy loved this land the Lord and meNow I`ve been through a war where many died and never got a scratchAnd enough of dad rubbed off on me to know how I came backI`m a living proof the man upstairs still lives and cares and answersThe prayers of the man who loved this land the Lord and me
