Old Gray Ford

English

Song

  • English

    Drove an old gray Ford from Memphis
    With a few repairs in Houston town
    He stopped to see old friends down in Tucson
    Made it to the west coast coming down
    Old enough to raise a family
    Young enough to make it alone

    Chorus
    So let him cry, cry, cry ‘cuz he’s forgiven
    Let him close up the books and live again
    Let him give up the life that he’s been livin’

    Started out to paint a self portrait
    Of the man he’d hoped to find
    Old and broken weak and restless
    All the things he’d leave behind
    Had enough to make him happy
    But not enough to let him live

    Chorus

    Wandered into town south of L.A.
    Into a meet’n most nearly done
    Listened to a man asking for some souls
    Stumbled down to give him one
    Found enough to make him happy
    More than enough to give him life

    Chorus
