AN OLDTIME COUNTRY MUSIC MAN He's an oldtime country music man with a million tales to tell He's had a little taste of heaven and more than his share of hell. He's played in all the honky-tonks all around this here ol' town And he's been down that lonesome road traveling this country all around. He's brought smiles to many faces and he's shed his share of tears His heart and mind are filled with memories of all of those by-gone years. He's an oldtime country music man with a million tales to tell He's had a little taste of heaven and more than his share of hell. There's some dreams of those younger days that have lasted and come true Along with all those other things he knows he will never do. He has two things that he treasures his ol' guitar and his wife For they are the heart and soul of this ol' country singers' life. He's an oldtime country music man with a million tales to tell He's had a little taste of heaven and more than his share of hell. Now the honkytonks are closed and the road's made it's final bend Now his old guitar gathers dust and his life's come to an end. Now his loyal fans are crying and laying flowers near his head Beneath the earth that he loved he lays in his final bed. He's an oldtime country music man who stood tall before he fell Now he sings for God in heaven and he's seen his last of hell. Del "Abe" Jones |

 (big hugggsssssss) God Bless You, sweet friend, in these modern times for country music, Johnny Cash was by far the best, who not only stayed true to what true country music is but was also a devoted Christian and loved all his loved ones! (sigh) He truly is a legend for this generation and many more to come, I love this, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Abe, thank you for sharing! May love and light always shine upon you! Love, Noah Eaton I don't need no proof when it comes to God and truth |
