On a grey-hound 30 Miles beyond James town,
He saw the sunset on the Tennessee Line
Looked at the young man who was Riding be - Side him,
He said I’m old kinda Worn out in -Side

And my father before me I Helped build this Land
Now I’m 77 and with God as my Witness I
Earned every dollar that Passed through my Hands.
