From Small Things (Big Things One Day Come) [Live at Malieveld, The Hague, Holland - 06/14/2016]

[Intro]

Come on

Yeah

[Verse 1]

Well, at sixteen she quit high school

To make her fortune in the promised land

She got a job behind the counter

At an all-night hamburger stand

She wrote faithfully home to mama

"Now mama, don't you worry none

From small things, mama, big things one day come"

Come on, play it

[Verse 2]

It was late one Friday

He pulled in out of the dark

He was tall and handsome

First she took his order then she took his heart

They bought a house on the hillside

Where little feet would soon run

From small things, mama, big things one day come

[Refrain]

Oh, but lovе was fleeting

It's sad but true

When your heart is bеating

You don't wanna hear the news

[Verse 3]

She packed her bags

And with a Wyomie County real estate man

She went down to Tampa

In an Eldorado Grand

She wrote back home, "Dear mama

Life is heaven in the sun

From small things, mama, big things one day come"

Ooh, yeah, professor

[Refrain]

Well, she shot him dead

On a sunny Florida road

But when they caught her all she said

She couldn't stand the way he drove

[Verse 4]

Back home lonesome Johnny

Waits for his baby's parole

He waits on the hillside

Where the Wyomie rivers roll

At his feet and almost grown now

A blue-eyed daughter and a handsome son

From small things, mama, big things one day come

Well, from small things, mama, big things one day come

Well, from small things, mama, big things one day come
