Paul Marhoefer - God and God Alone lyrics

Artist: Paul Marhoefer

album: Old Black Epiphone


I was thinking 'bout a Christmas after the wreck
When all you kids got that morning were post dated checks
And a Kenworth with a bullrack in one thirty second scale
To share
It was three months just learning how to walk again
So we learned to eat beans and I learned to drink gin
While the rest went to Household Finance through the courthouse mail
I've seen you in your caps and gowns
Watched you get up every time you fall down
Know you're doin' right by the children that you bear
All I can say it was God and God alone
Who took us here from there
Oh my daddy told me once back in seventy three
"Son you gotta quit wearing your heart on your sleeve
Sleep on your grievance, in the morning say whay you need to say"
But there's just some things I can't contain
You're my heart, you're my flesh, you're my blood, you're my name
And that ship has long ago sailed out the bay
I've seen you in your caps and gowns
Watched you get up every time you fall down
Know you're doin' right by the children that you bear
All I can say it was God and God alone
Who took us here from there
As I look at you now, all I can see
Is everything I only dreamed to be
And all that I hope one day to become
And it's still unclear just who raised who
Or how we even made it through
But I'm just so glad you're my daughters and my sons
I've seen you in your caps and gowns
Watched you get up every time you fall down
Know you're doin' right by the children that you bear
All I can say it was God and God alone
Who took us here from there
