1
He put on his shirt carefully
2
Making sure that the buttons matched up
3
His sleeves were always too short
4
But at least it meant he could always see his watch
5
And often he checked the time
6
And it would be stopped
7
He always thought it was broken
8
But then he'd remember he had to wind it, oh
9
Though he knew some day
10
He'd remember to wind it and it wouldn't work after all
11
Maybe that would happen
12
On the exact day he didn't think it was broken
13
Isn't that the way it works
14
Isn't that the way it goes
15
While the fox he lurks
16
And while the rooster crows
17
Isn't that the way things are
18
The way the world ain't flat
19
But you can only run so far
20
Before you make it back
21
He could drink from the sink
22
By craning his head far to one side
23
The day he figured that out
24
One of the horses died
25
It was one of the twins that barely a week'd been alive
26
It was the one who could barely stand
27
We'd wrapped his legs with gauze and bandages
28
From inside from one of the kitchen drawers
29
We called him stretch
30
'Cause he was so skinny and tall
31
Momma said both twins rarely live with horses
32
We was lucky to have one livin' at all
33
And me and my momma slept
34
In the stall next to them in the bed of a pickup
35
All us kids piled in, I remember the momma horse
36
Lickin' and cleaning up her newborn babies
37
She was working so hard
38
(She was working so hard)
39
She was working so hard
40
(She was working so hard)
41
She was working so hard
42
She was working so hard
43
She was working so hard
44
She was working so hard
45
Isn't that the way it works
46
Isn't that the way it goes
47
While the fox he lurks
48
And while the rooster crows
49
Isn't that the way things are
50
The way the world ain't flat
51
You can only run so far
52
Before you make it back
53
Isn't that the way it works
54
Isn't that the way it goes
55
While the fox he lurks
56
And while the rooster crows
57
Isn't that the way things are
58
The way the world ain't flat
59
You can only run so far
60
Before you make it back
61
You can only run so far
62
You can only run so far
63
Before you make it
64
Before you make it back
