The sun went down, the week is done, the Friday night lights are shinin'
The old dirt road is callin' me, no sense in sittin' 'round pinin'
Got my faded ball cap pulled down low, kickin' up the dust with my shoes
I'm headin' for the old creek bridge, where I always go to lose the blues
But tonight the blues just follow me, like shadows in the settin' sun
Yeah, tonight they feel like heavy chains, wishin' this walk was already done.
'Cause I'm going crazy, goin' crazy on a Friday night
Watchin' the river move, beneath the pale moonlight
Sad thoughts like buzzards are circling 'round my head
And I just keep missin' you, and every single word you said
Oh, I'm going crazy 24/7 'cause you're not around, it's true
I wish you were here, Papaw, and Nana Lori, me and you.
I leaned upon the wooden rail, and I looked up at the sky
Saw a flock of feathered angels, watchin' the birds fly by
They dipped and soared so easy, like they didn't have a care
And I wondered if their wings could take a message up to you up there
'Cause the house is too quiet, the farm just feels too big
There's an empty chair at Sunday lunch, right underneath the fig tree's twig.
And I'm going crazy, goin' crazy on a Friday night
Watchin' the river move, beneath the pale moonlight
Sad thoughts like buzzards are circling 'round my head
And I just keep missin' you, and every single word you said
Oh, I'm going crazy 24/7 'cause you're not around, it's true
I wish you were here, Papaw, and Nana Lori, me and you.
The water runs below me, headed to some distant sea
Just like my heart keeps runnin' back to all the memories
You taught me how to fish, Papaw, and Nana taught me grace
You know, you two were truly, truly my whole world in this place.
Yeah, you Papaw, you and Nana Lori were my world
I'm still here by the bridge, just a sad little boy
And I'm going crazy without you...
I wish you were here.
