You left for work each morning before the sun Came up, you put your forty years in but it Wasn't quite enough, you put a couple bucks Down when you got a hunch and I never heard You complaining all that much It hits me in the spring of every year I think about you and I wonder where Your life has taken you, are you still here I thought your words were dumb but now They've become clear to me "To Me" Every day you wife packed a brown bag with Your lunch, it never seemed like much but It must have been enough, you had 6 kids And lots of bill, it had to be real tough, but I've never heard you talking about you too much It hits me in the spring of every year I think about you and I wonder where Your life has taken you, are you still here I thought your words were dumb but now They've become clear to me Did you always speak the truth [x4] "To Me" Now I've grown up I got a family of my own I go to work each morning and I chip Away the stone and sometimes when its dark And I'm feeling all alone,I think about the Way you worked you fingers to the bone It hits me in the spring of every year I think about you and I wonder where Your life has taken you, are you still here I thought your words were dumb but now They've become clear to me Did you always speak the truth [x4] All you meant to say was that I Would learn the truth someday [x3] All you meant to say was that I (I Remember you) Would learn the truth someday (hey Bobby hey) [x2] HEY!
