Wonder Could I Live There Anymore Lyrics - Wynn Stewart

Have you ever been awaken by the crowing of a rooster 

While the night is still heavy on the ground 

And the voice of Uncle Ben seems to break the morning silence 

Bringing light to windows all around 

It's time to rise and shine and start another hard working day 

Get the cows in and start the milking chores 

It's nice to think about it and maybe even visit 

But I wonder could I live there anymore 

[ steel - piano ] 

Something bout the smell of cornbread a cooking on a wood stove 

Seems to bring a picture to my mind 

Of a little three room house with mama in the kitchen 

But she can't stop to talk she ain't got the time 

Cause she's a fixing dad his supper he's a working over time 

Tryin' to pay our bill at the grocery store 

It's nice to think about it and maybe even visit 

But I wonder could I live there anymore 

I think about my childhood and of my old hometown 

And I wonder could I live there anymore
