Smells of amber
Burning from that log pile
Been a long while
Ain’t spoke since the sun
Went down on the sky
Back moons ago in July
Used to sit by the rio
Laughing bout the people
Walking them corners
On tenth avenue
Funny how the people
In Suite and ties seem evil
Got all the power choked tight in their grip
But the plains north of rio
Holds only what we know
Taking back all the times we used to
…..
Tall tavern tails
Old car box sales
Match striking off
On the sides of them Levi’s
Bright blue big wide sky’s
Soar across this land
Just like my wild ol’ sorrel
…
Sun touched skin on
The cool cold crisp wind
Just northeast of Killeen
Where the air cuts down cross
The Brazos river
Stands a cowboy preacher
Preaching bout a man who saves lives and saved this world
…
Red tacova boots, Dressed down in Levi denim
Heart full of love
Southern draw he had it in em
Dude God sent to me as a present
Taught be truth worth living
Bout a man long ago who walked the road, worn out droughts and talked about, life and death, resurrection and how our father sent him here to save us all, not to fall and a place to lay our head
Tall tavern tails
Old car box sales
Match striking off
On the sides of them Levi’s
Bright blue big wide sky’s
Soar across this land
Just like my wild ol’ sorrel
…
Sun touched skin on
The cool cold crisp wind
Just northeast of Killeen
Where the air cuts down cross
The Brazos river
Stands a cowboy preacher
Preaching bout a man who saves lives and saved this world
…
Hope I meet you again down some ol road
So I can tell you all the tells that Jesus told
Smells of amber
Burning from that log pile
Been a long while
Ain’t spoke since the sun
Went down on the sky
Back moons ago in July
….
I’ll take what you taught me, on the road i’s just survivin
And tell all the folks, about a man named Jesus, to give em all a chance at a life worth living
