Three Wooden Crosses
A farmer and a teacher, a hooker and a preacher,
Ridin’ on a midnight bus bound for Mexico.
One’s headed for vacation, one for higher education,
An’ two of them were searchin’ for lost souls.
That driver never ever saw the stop sign.
An’ eighteen wheelers can’t stop on a dime.
There are three wooden crosses on the right side of the highway,
Why there’s not four of them, Heaven only knows.
I guess it’s not what you take when you leave this world behind you,
It’s what you leave behind you when you go.
Faith
I can picture a boat on a river
A man with a hat
Who looked like the captain
Singing a sea shanty
To a crowd of people
Who were walking on water
I sat on the bank
Thinking this is amusing
To see such a sight on a Sunday morning
The captain he noticed the man on the bank
He started to sing an old song
Dance to my mother, dance to my father
Sing to my mother, sing to my father
Sing to the crowd, everybody sing
