Between The |
|
Two Of Them |
|
Alabama Album: |
|
American Pride |
|
They married back in '32 |
|
They were young and love was new |
|
And every day the feeling grew |
|
Between the two of them |
|
When work grew scarce and times got bad |
|
The hope would chase away the sad |
|
And hope was sometimes all they had |
|
Between the two of them |
|
The 40's came and the 50's went |
|
And the mortgage replaced the rent |
|
They made the most of each day spent |
|
Between the two of them |
|
Their children all turned out just fine |
|
So he retired in '69 |
|
And left with oh so little time |
|
Between the two of them |
|
Today I brave the graveyard rain |
|
And placed a rose between their names |
|
Now that's the most that ever came |
|
Between the two of them |
|
And though |
|
I miss them oh so much |
|
His crooked smile her gentle touch |
|
And the pleasure of just growing up |
|
Between the two of them |
