Morning Come Lyrics
When will the morning come ? I wait in darkness so long. Will the sun ever rise again ? Hours flowing over me I wait in vain for some change. Will light ever pierce this pain ? Riding on

PO' FOLKS

There's a whole lotta people lookin' down their noses at me
Cause I didn't come from a wealthy family
There was ten of us livin' in a two room shack
On the banks of the river by the railroad track
We kept chickens in a pen in the back
And everybody said we was po' folks
My daddy was a farmer but all he ever raised was us
Dug a forty foot well stru
Above Me Lyrics
If I was to walk till time saw no end. If I was to climb till the air was too thin. I could not find a picture fit the frame. As perfect as you. As perfect as you. You showed me life and live
ck thirty-six gallons of dustIf I was to walk till time saw no end. If I was to climb till the air was too thin. I could not find a picture fit the frame. As perfect as you. As perfect as you. You showed me life and live
Salvation Army give us clothes to wear
A man from the county came to cut our hair
We lived next door to a millionare
But we wadn't nothin' but po' folks
We was po' folks livin' in a rich folks world
We sure was a hungry bunch
If the wolf had ever come to our front door
He'd've had to brought a picnic lunch
My grandaddy's pension was a dollar and thirty-three cents
That was ten dol

The landlord's letters got nasty indeed
He wrote get out but pa couldn't read
And we was too broke to even pay heed
But that's how it is when you're po' folks
We was po' folks livin' in a rich folks world
We sure was a hungry bunch
If the wolf had ever come to our front door
He'd've had to brought a picnic lunch
But we had something in our house money can't buy

Twisted Lyrics
I think I could give myself up to you Cause you pushed your way thru my attitude But a taste of life on the tip of my tongue Won't let me forget. It just reminds me Of all the things I've been fed And
warm in the winter cool when the sun was highI think I could give myself up to you Cause you pushed your way thru my attitude But a taste of life on the tip of my tongue Won't let me forget. It just reminds me Of all the things I've been fed And
For whenever we didn't have food enough
And the howlin' winds would get pretty rough
We patched the cracks and set the table with love
Cause that's what you do when you're po' folks
And we wadn't nothin' but po' folks
My mom and my dad was po' folks
My brother and my sister was po' folks
My dog and my cat was po' folks
And even the po' folks was po' folks
