Lyrics
I met him when I was in kindergarten
His wife was my teacher that year
He'd come into class for a cookie
The grasshopper ones drew him near.
Oh
The grasshopper ones drew him near
I've been chasing Bill Brown for a lifetime
The lessons he taught were of gold
He gave millions away, but he wasn't rich
He paid us with the stories he told.
I didn't see him until I grew older
His classroom stood alone at the end
He'd call me Big Guy when I walked in
He was more than a teacher, my friend.
Oh
He was more than a teacher, my friend
I've been chasing Bill Brown for a lifetime
The lessons he taught were of gold
He gave millions away, but he wasn't rich
He paid us with the stories he told.
Don't stare up the steps. Step up the stairs
Get up and win that race
It's a beautiful day. Something great will happen
He gave us all so much grace.
Oh
He gave us all so much grace
I've been chasing Bill Brown for a lifetime
The lessons he taught were of gold
He gave millions away, but he wasn't rich
He paid us with the stories he told.
I sit in his seat now but can't fill it.
I do my best to reap what he sowed
Years have gone by, but he's stayed in my heart
He hoed to the end of the row
Oh
He hoed to the end of the row.
I've been chasing Bill Brown for a lifetime
The lessons he taught were of gold
He gave millions away, but he wasn't rich
He paid us with the stories he told.
Oh
He paid us with the stories he told.
Thank you Mr. Martin
