I Sing For Joy

When I was younger, the hunger came calling

And humbly I answered each rising and falling

I will not surrender at this wiser and tender age

I turn the page

And I sing for joy, for the smile that it brings from the heart

Through these guitar strings

It was only noise till her love put a song

In the soul of this good ole boy, I sing for joy

When I was lonely, my angel found me

She sweetly and gently wrapped her arms around me

And the demons that chased me, gave up and faded away

Now I can sing

I sing for joy, for the smile that it brings from the heart

Through these guitar strings

It was only noise till her love put a song

In the soul of this good ole boy, I sing for joy

Who could come nearer to making life clearer

The time we're together grows dearer and dearer

When I must travel and I have to leave her alone

She's in my song

And I sing for joy, for the smile that it brings from the heart

Through these guitar strings

It was only noise till her love put a song

In the soul of this good ole boy, I sing for joy

'Cause her love put a song

In the soul of this good ole boy, I sing for joy
