When I was younger, the hunger came calling |
|
And humbly I answered each rising and falling |
|
I will not surrender at this wiser and tender age |
|
I turn the page |
|
And I sing for joy, for the smile that it brings from the heart |
|
Through these guitar strings |
|
It was only noise till her love put a song |
|
In the soul of this good ole boy, I sing for joy |
|
When I was lonely, my angel found me |
|
She sweetly and gently wrapped her arms around me |
|
And the demons that chased me, gave up and faded away |
|
Now I can sing |
|
I sing for joy, for the smile that it brings from the heart |
|
Through these guitar strings |
|
It was only noise till her love put a song |
|
In the soul of this good ole boy, I sing for joy |
|
Who could come nearer to making life clearer |
|
The time we're together grows dearer and dearer |
|
When I must travel and I have to leave her alone |
|
She's in my song |
|
And I sing for joy, for the smile that it brings from the heart |
|
Through these guitar strings |
|
It was only noise till her love put a song |
|
In the soul of this good ole boy, I sing for joy |
|
'Cause her love put a song |
|
In the soul of this good ole boy, I sing for joy |
