Intro: Some folks say that this life ain't worth living Some folks say that life is just a lie You can take so much from a man He'll give you all he can When he's had enough, he'll just one up and die He was a legend in his time, I don't know the reason why When he'd sing a song, you know I'd like to cry Now he's on the other side, standing on god's golden shore Singing country music for the lord Now a singing life was all he ever wanted But a travelling life can make a man feel tired Lay your fortune on the line Twenty-six ain't past your prime Now the angel band has one more for the choir He was a legend in his time, I don't know the reason why When he'd sing a song, you know I'd like to cry Now he's on the other side, standing on god's golden shore Singing country music for the lord Instrumental:
