Times like these
i be jus fine all by myself
Cuz folks
See folks
They let you down.
So I jus as well be...
Alone dat way
I jus ka focus on
The Lord cus He won't leave
You 'lone
I know dat fa sho
Ka I was born alone
I ain't neva had nobody fah me
I ain't neva had a person
Who came ta mine when
it's a'mergency,
tragedy,
crisis
Jus been me ala dis time.
'Ner'ry time I starts ta
straighten up a bit sa mo
weighs jus comes down
I bounce right back
But after bending over too far
Fa so long, so many times
I can't recall
where the point of focus xactly at
N'some my limbs jus ain't
steady like it started out
But I'm still standing alone
Ka He ain't gon no where
N He ain't say I gon no where
either
but..
the
wind gets cold
the
flood rains down
and
the
fire
SCORCHES
fiercely
so I may
have a scar
or
bruises
that don't
look so pretty
to ya
BUT
You don't got
NO IDEA
that I'm
Knotty Pine
ALL YOU SEE
Is the rough
