Generate meaning
1
A farmer and a teacher
2
A hooker and a preacher
3
Riding on a midnight bus
4
Bound for Mexico
5
One was headed for vacation
6
One for higher education
7
And two of them were searchin' for lost souls
8
That driver never ever saw the stop sign
9
And 18 wheelers can't stop on a dime
10
There are three wooden crosses on the right side of the highway
11
Why there's not four of them heaven only knows
12
I guess it's not what you take
13
When you leave this world behind you
14
It's what you leave behind you when you go
15
That farmer left a harvest
16
A home and 80 acres
17
The faith and love for growing things
18
In his young son's heart
19
And that teacher left her wisdom
20
In the minds of lots of children
21
Did her best to give 'em all
22
A better start
23
And that preacher whispered
24
"Can't you see the promised land?"
25
As he lay his blood stained Bible
26
In that hooker's hand
27
There are three wooden crosses on the right side of the highway
28
Why there's not four of them heaven only knows
29
I guess it's not what you take
30
When you leave this world behind you
31
It's what you leave behind you when you go
32
That's the story that our preacher told last Sunday
33
As he held that blood stained Bible up
34
For all of us to see
35
He said, "Bless the farmer
36
And the teacher
37
And the preacher
38
Who gave this Bible to my momma
39
Who read it to me"
40
There are three wooden crosses on the right side of the highway
41
Why there's not four of them now I guess we know
42
It's not what you take
43
When you leave this world behind you
44
It's what you leave behind you when you go
45
There are three wooden crosses on the right side of the highway......
