Roger Miller - JODY AND THE KID слова песни
She would meet me in the morningOn my way down to the riverWaiting patient by the chinaberry treeWith her feet already dustyFrom the pathway to the leveeAnd her little blue jeans rolled up to her kneesI`d pay her no attentionAs she tagged along beside meTrying hard to copy everything i didBut i couldn`t keep from smilingWhen i`d hear somebody sayingLooky yonder there goes jody and the kidEven after we grew olderWe could still be seen togetherAs we walked along the levee holding handsFor as surely as the season she was changin` to a womanAnd i`d lived enough to call myself a manAs she often lay beside meIn the coolness of the eveningTil` the morning sun as shining on my bedAnd at times when she was sleeping i`d smile when i`d rememberHow they used to call us jody and the kidNow the world`s a little olderAnd the years have changed the river`Cause there`s houses where they didn`t used to beAnd on sundays i go walkingDown the pathway to the leveeWith another little girl who follows meAnd it makes the old folks smileTo see her tag along beside meDoing little things the way her mama didBut it gets a little lonesomeWhen i hear somebody sayin`Looky yonder there goes jody and the kid
