Max Stalling - Lay My Burdens Down lyrics

I'm going down on the Nueces River Gonna call my brother, ask him to meet me there On the surface will be two men fishing Down below we are brothers with a love to share I'm gonna lay my burdens down now Gonna ask the Lord to watch them a while I'm gonna walk where the sun is shining I'll be home when I have found a smile There is a salt cedar tree that I know of It can take a breeze and make a melody I'm gonna climb up in those branches And ask if it would whisper its secrets to me CHORUS There'll come a time when the world is level There was a time when the mountains grew Then there is all that is here in the middle And how it's spent is up to me and up to you CHORUS
