Once I walked a thousand miles through the sun and rain found someone
Who made me smile, took away my pain we arranged to meet again in a
Southern town when I called her mother up she was not around

Looking out across the sky you can see the same as I
Giving all your fears away you will cease to stumble on your way
Once I had a silver girl all my

Hearts desire living in a different world, who put out the
Fire looking out across the sky you can see the same as I
Giving all your fears away you will cease to stumble on your way

Once there was a younger man
Standing in my shoes had a guitar in his hand in his heart the
Blues tried to heal the wound inside did some heavy drinkin

Had to swallow all his pride knew the ship was sinkin
