1
Born the middle son
2
Of a farmer
3
And a small town
4
Southern man
5
Like his daddy's
6
Daddy before him
7
Brought up
8
Workin' on the land
9
Fell in love
10
With a small town woman
11
And they married up
12
And settled down
13
Natural way of life
14
If you're lucky
15
For a small town
16
Southern man
17
First there came
18
Four pretty daughters
19
For this small town
20
Southern man
21
Then a few years
22
Later came another
23
A boy, he wasn't planned
24
Seven people
25
Living all together
26
In a house built
27
With his own hands
28
Little words with love
29
And understanding
30
From a small town
31
Southern man
32
And he bowed
33
His head to Jesus
34
And he stood
35
For Uncle Sam
36
And he only loved
37
One woman
38
He was always proud
39
Of what he had
40
He said
41
His greatest contribution
42
Is the ones
43
You leave behind
44
Raised on the ways
45
And gentle kindness
46
Of a small town
47
Southern man
48
Raised on the ways
49
And gentle kindness
50
Of a small town
51
Southern man
52
Callous hands
53
Told the story
54
For this small town
55
Southern man
56
He gave it all
57
To keep it all together
58
And keep his family
59
On his land
60
Like his daddy
61
Years wore out his body
62
Made it hard
63
Just to walk
64
And stand
65
You can break the back
66
But you can't break
67
The spirit
68
Of a small town
69
Southern man
70
And he bowed
71
His head to Jesus
72
And he stood
73
For Uncle Sam
74
And he only loved
75
One woman
76
He was always proud
77
Of what he had
78
He said
79
His greatest contribution
80
Is the ones
81
You leave behind
82
Raised on the ways
83
And gentle kindness
84
Of a small town
85
Southern man
86
Raised on the ways
87
And gentle kindness
88
Of a small town
89
Southern man
90
Finally death
91
Came callin'
92
For this small town
93
Southern man
94
He said it's alright
95
'Cause I see angels
96
And they got me
97
By the hand
98
Don't you cry
99
And don't you worry
100
I'm blessed
101
And I know I am
102
'Cause God
103
Has a place in heaven
104
For a small town
105
Southern man
106
And he bowed
107
His head to Jesus
108
And he stood
109
For Uncle Sam
110
And he only loved
111
One woman
112
He was always proud
113
Of what he had
114
He said
115
His greatest contribution
116
Is the ones
117
You leave behind
118
Raised on the ways
119
And gentle kindness
120
Of a small town
121
Southern man
122
Raised on the ways
123
And gentle kindness
124
Of a small town
125
Southern man
