Burlap To Cashmere - Good Man lyrics

He was walking down the highway And you saw him straggling along And you reached out Opened up your door And you gave him a ride To your heavenly home God his mother, she won't listen And his father hated his old man But you listened to his feelings And your eyes consistently understand Yes, your eyes consistently understand He was a good man He lived a good life He was a good man He lived a good life But he was dancing to the bright lights He was dying for some love Well, you see him with his guitar Down the highway, he would walk along Singin' old songs, singin' Sunday blues But his school bells were his only song Yes his school bells were his only song Through the fire, through the lying sun Through the smoke and fog Through the day that's done There was strength there There was hope alive There were strings of peace From the other side There were strings of peace From the other side He was a good man He lived a good life He was a good man He lived a good life But he was dancing to the bright lights He was dying for some love Don't you see he's falling away Thank God for the love that you gave Only love can put out a fire And only love was calling him Higher and higher He was a good man He lived a good life He was a good man He lived a good life But he was dancing to the bright lights He was dying for some love He was a good man He lived a good life He was a good man He lived a good life And you were right there, for the hard times You were there again and again Again and again, again and again He was walking Down the highway Give him a ride to your heavenly home Give him the ride to your heavenly home
