Lyrics Dixie Chicks

Dixie Chicks

Standin' by the Bedside

I was standin' by the bedside of a sister

And kindly take this message to the other side

And I asked her if she would do me a favor

Who was just about to cross that swellin' tide

Well, if you see my savior tell him that you saw me

And when you saw me I was on my way

You may meet some boyfriends who may ask about me

You tell 'em I am a comin' home someday

I was standin' by the bedside of a sister

And I asked her if she would do me a favor

Who was just about to cross that swellin' tide

And kindly take this message to the other side

When you reach that goal that's when you'll think about me

I was standin' by the bedside of a sister

Sooner or later, sooner or later it's a debt that must be paid Well you may have to make this journey on without me

But don't forget to tell my savior what I said

And I asked her if she would do me a favor

Who was just about to cross that swellin' tide

And kindly take this message to the other side
