When I remember back to my hometown Seems like I knew everyone around But when the memories start to fade There's one I'll keep to the day They lay my old body in the ground I'll always remember Wiley Moore Working for the store next door To the one that was my dad's A better friend I've never had And I'll always remember Wiley Moore He knew me before I knew my name Everytime he'd see me he'd act the same He'd say how you doing Wood Oh he made me made me feel so good And I mean it when I sing this refrain I'll always remember Wiley Moore Working for the store next door To the one that was my dad's A better friend I've never had And I'll always remember Wiley Moore When I finally grew from a pup He'd take me for a ride in his pickup truck He'd watch me in the Fall when I learned to play football But he stayed outside the fence to save a buck Before you knew it I was grown Packed all my bags and left my home Aw but when it crossed my mind what I'd left behind I hoped he would like it when it was known I'll always remember Wiley Moore Working for the store next door To the one that was my dad's A better friend I've never had And I'll always remember Always remember I'll always remember Wiley Moore
