Paroles officielles de la chanson "Three Wooden Crosses"

A farmer and a teacher, a hooker and a preacher
Were riding on a greyhound bus bound for mexico
One was headed for vacation one for higher education
And two of them were searching for lost souls
That driver never ever saw the stop sign
And eighteen-wheelers can't stop on a dime
There are three wooden crosses on the right side of the highway
Why there's not four of them heaven only knows
It's not what you take when you leave this world behind you
It's what you leave behind you when you go
The farmer left a harvest a home and eighty acres
And a love for growing things in his young son's heart
The teacher left her wisdom in the minds of lots of children
Did her best to give 'em all a better start
The preacher whispered can't you see the promise land
As he laid his blood-stained bible in that hooker's hand
B@that's the story that our preacher told last sunday
As he raised that blood-stained bible
For all of us to see - he said
Bless the farmer and the teacher, and that preacher
And his bible that he gave my mama that she gave to me
There are three wooden crosses
