Bobby Powers

You left for work each morning before the sun

Came up, you put your forty years in but it

Wasn't quite enough, you put a couple bucks

Down when you got a hunch and I never heard

You complaining all that much

It hits me in the spring of every year

I think about you and I wonder where

Your life has taken you, are you still here

I thought your words were dumb but now

They've become clear to me "To Me"

Every day you wife packed a brown bag with

Your lunch, it never seemed like much but

It must have been enough, you had 6 kids

And lots of bill, it had to be real tough, but

I've never heard you talking about you too much

It hits me in the spring of every year

I think about you and I wonder where

Your life has taken you, are you still here

I thought your words were dumb but now

They've become clear to me

Did you always speak the truth (4x) "To Me"

Now I've grown up I got a family of my own

I go to work each morning and I chip

Away the stone and sometimes when its dark

And I'm feeling all alone,I think about the

Way you worked you fingers to the bone

It hits me in the spring of every year

I think about you and I wonder where

Your life has taken you, are you still here

I thought your words were dumb but now

They've become clear to me

Did you always speak the truth (4x)

All you meant to say was that I

Would learn the truth someday (3x)

All you meant to say was that I

(I Remember you)

Would learn the truth someday

(hey Bobby hey) (2x)

HEY!
