Good Man Lyrics - Singles - Burlap To Cashmere

He was walking down the highway 

And you saw him straggling along 

And you reached out 

Opened up your door 

And you gave him a ride 

To your heavenly home 

God his mother, she won't listen 

And his father hated his old man 

But you listened to his feelings 

And your eyes consistently understand 

Yes, your eyes consistently understand 

He was a good man 

He lived a good life 

He was a good man 

He lived a good life 

But he was dancing to the bright lights 

He was dying for some love 

Well, you see him with his guitar 

Down the highway, he would walk along 

Singin' old songs, singin' Sunday blues 

But his school bells were his only song 

Yes his school bells were his only song 

Through the fire, through the lying sun 

Through the smoke and fog 

Through the day that's done 

There was strength there 

There was hope alive 

There were strings of peace 

From the other side 

There were strings of peace 

From the other side 

He was a good man 

He lived a good life 

He was a good man 

He lived a good life 

But he was dancing to the bright lights 

He was dying for some love 

Don't you see he's falling away 

Thank God for the love that you gave 

Only love can put out a fire 

And only love was calling him 

Higher and higher 

He was a good man 

He lived a good life 

He was a good man 

He lived a good life 

But he was dancing to the bright lights 

He was dying for some love 

He was a good man 

He lived a good life 

He was a good man 

He lived a good life 

And you were right there, for the hard times 

You were there again and again 

Again and again, again and again 

He was walking 

Down the highway 

Give him a ride to your heavenly home 

Give him the ride to your heavenly home
