The Heart Lyrics - Kris Kristofferson

My Daddy was a charmer, boys, he had a lot of style 

He was shining best at everything he did 

They said that he could lighten up a room with just a smile 

And I was proud as hell to be his kid

It seemed like just as we were growing close together he was gone 

But it was long enough to show what I could be 

And I sometimes feel his spirit fill my body like a song 

And this is what my Daddy sings to me 

[Chorus] 

If they deal you down and dirty in a way you don't deserve 

You'll feel better if you take it like a man 

If you let 'em drive you crazy, boy, they'll shut your business down 

Shake it off and get your licks in when you can 

Cause the heart is all that matters in the end

They say every song is sweeter when you sing it from the heart 

I won't knock it 'cause I tried it and it's true 

I may never get to heaven, but I've seen a lot of stars 

And I'm here to bring the same advice to you. 

[Chorus] 

Yes, the heart is all that matters in the end 

The heart is all that matters in the end
