The Song Goes With Me

(album: Ain't In No Hurry - 2022)

Lately I've been wondering
If I should even be here
Seems everything is showing me
That I don't belong

But still I've got this story
And this broken heart of gold
Memories and melodies
And I've got this song

And the song goes with me
When the lights go down
It's my true companion
At the edge of this town
You can leave me stranded
Strike a bargain for my soul
But the song goes with me
When I go

I heard it as a baby
Rocking me fast asleep
Gentle as the morning rain
Woke me from my young girl's dreams
It took me to the honkytonk
To bring my stumbling daddy home
He sang Haggard from the back seat drunk
And I sang along

And the song goes with me
When the lights go down
It's my true companion
At the edge of this town
You can leave me stranded
Strike a bargain for my soul
But the song goes with me

When I go
I know where I'm headed
When I go
There'll be a whole lotta singing in Heaven

You can leave me stranded
Strike a bargain for my soul
But the song goes with me
Yeah the song goes with me
Yeah the song goes with me
When I go
