Susie was a pearl of a woman Jack was a golden man She told him she'd love him forever He gave her a wedding band Their parents said they were just children “Love comes as fast as it leaves They think that they've built a foundation Till life knocks them down with a breeze”
Living comes natural to many Love comes natural to few You take the high road to freedom I'll take the low road to you
Jack bought a brand new tractor The bank bought him the land He said, “The work may be hard but its honest I'll pay 'em by May if I can.” Sometimes they'd talk about children Names and things that they'll do “If its a girl we'll call her Joanna She'll grow up to be just like you.”
Living comes natural to many Love comes natural to few You take the high road to freedom I'll take the low road to you
Jack was out plowing the south end Trying to beat the next rain Susie, she'd watch through the window As the downpour finally came He was riding the side of the terrace When the mud gave way to the wheel The tractor tipped over on Jack The cold was all he could feel Susie ran out through the rainstorm Threw her arms around her true love Her tears were lost in the water And mixed in a puddle of blood He told his little wife not to worry He said, “The soft ground has broken my fall.” He told her he'd love her forever Then he didn't say nothing at all
Susie grew old and grey-headed She never did marry again Jack took the high road to freedom She took the low road to him
Living comes natural to many Love comes natural to few You take the high road to freedom I'll take the low road to youTeksty umieszczone na naszej stronie są własnością wytwórni, wykonawców, osób mających do nich prawa.
