As I went down in the river to pray. Studying about that good old way. (And who shall wear) the starry crown. Good Lord, show me the way!. . O sisters let's go down,.
Those city lights drew you like a magnet. You were attracted to his high-falootin' crowd. I begged you not to go, but you still packed up. I've been expectin' you.
I held the world in my arms. I threw away the moon for the stars. Couldn't see the forest for the trees. Couldn't see the love in front of me. . What would it take to take me back?.
Woah. . I got a black book, full of numbers. All the makin's of a real hot summer. Radio, cranked up the rockin'. Weeks pay burnin a hole in my pocket.
All you've ever been. Is a call every now and then. From some old pay phone. After you'd hang up. Lord, she'd take it rough. And want to be alone. I know you from the picture.
I'm the luckiest man in this old world. Cause I got the love of a sweet little girl. Yeah I'm as amazed as I can be. I swear I don't see what she sees in me.
God of Love, God of Power, the only reason that I'm still here. God of Mercy, your hand of grace, touched my life I'm forever changed. Life was so empty until you came in, when I was weak you showed me your strength.

Every man needs a reason. To get up in the morning and shave. He needs an incentive. And not just a promotion. With more pain. He needs someone to stand by him.
Well, I got a cousin that's twice removed. Had a crush on a girl back in school. She didn't know it, he didn't let it show. Now she's married to a banker in El Paso.

I think that I'll unplug the phone tonight. Turn off the TV, turn down the lights. I don't wanna join the crowd, I'm not in the mood. I just wanna be alone with you.
Phantom Of The Opry. ( Written by Billy Lawson / John Schweers / Roger Murrah ). . Around midnight. A shadow appears on center stage. And sings a haunting melody.
She wakes the kids up for school, the bacon's on the stove. He yells from their bedroom, honey, where'd you put my clothes. The school bus runs right on time.
