Things In Life

[VERSE 1]

Look up, look down that lonesome road

Hang down your head and cry

For we often lose some things in life

That make us wonder why

[VERSE 2]

Oh the fairest love I ever had

Now sleeps beneath the clay

And I live in hopes and dreams of her

That we’ll meet again someday

[VERSE 3]

I often sit and wonder why

Life has to be this way

But after all is said and done

I’m sure God has his say

[VERSE 4]

I’d like to be a small part of life

With some few things to achieve

Just to know I’ve been a fruitless cause

Would give my poor heart grief

[VERSE 5]

Now as you lower my casket down

In some lonesome grave to rest

You could take one last look at my face

And say I did my best
