Blow on you restless wind up to your old tricks again   Bear down you Texas sun you make the desserts dry and the brush fires run   Splintered wood rusty chains this old front porch swing remains   A pendelum of memories goes back and forth on a summer breeze      Singing old church hymns and nursery rhymes   From the days way back before my time   With a little child upon my knee singing every sweet word back to me   Look how far I had to come to get back where I started from   With a child's wisdom passing time   Singing old church hymns and nursery rhymes      I've run the race I've walked the wire I paid the price of my desire   And the only time I've known it all is just before I took a fall   So howl you lone coyote song fade to sapphire sky of dawn   Count me in the lucky men to send the world around again      Singing old church hymns and nursery rhymes...
