Daddy's Old Sayin's, Mama's Beliefs

(앨범: The Best I've Ever Been - 2000)

Daddy had a lot of old sayings
He always tried to live by
Better look before you leap still water runs deep
You never get to big to cry
Mama said a lifetime should be based
On the rock of ages and amazing grace
She kept the lovelight burning in our old homeplace
And I grew up there somewhere between

Daddy's old sayings and mama's beliefs
I keep them locked inside my heart way down deep
Now when everything in life goes wrong
I can find the strength I need
In daddy's old sayings and mama's beliefs

Daddy like a little shot of whiskey
Sometimes a little homemade wine
Mama used to scold him turn around and hold him
Things would be all right till the next time
She would tell him all the things he was searching for
Could only be found in the words of the lord
Daddy said sometimes they're in an old fruit jar
And he looked every Saturday night repeat chorus

Daddy's old sayings and mama's beliefs
I keep them locked inside my heart way down deep
Now when everything in life goes wrong
I can find the strength I need
In daddy's old sayings and mama's beliefs
In daddy's old sayings and mama's beliefs
