A gravel road runs to my home And the pine trees roll forever Kady Dids they sang my song And the only change is the weather And once in a while I can hear him smile Blowin through the trees in the night A hound dog howlin in a distant thunder Just a shadow in the pale moonlight chorus: He was a simple man He had no plans He lived his life Off the land He had a simple life A simple wife He never learned To read or write He was a simple....man A lonesome dove cries out for love And the rain beats slow and steady Lightening strikes in the night The hunt is on and he's ready And once in a while I can hear him Blowin through the trees in the night A whiporill cries out his thrills As the darkness slowly bleeds to light Chorus |
