Down The Road

Back in the hot Austin summer


Christmas 2008

This entry is about being blessed with
2 amazing son-in laws, Patrick & Nathan.
The lyrics to this song reminded me of
how fast life passes us by...
and how God answered our prayers for our girls.


Down the Road

When I was a boy

Four houses down from me
Was a family with an only child
She was the only girl
In this whole world that could make me smile.

Down the road
I made reasons to go
Down the road

Somewhere inside of me
There was something that she took a liking to
Well, I ask her to marry me
She said she really wanted to

Down the road
To see what life's gonna hold
Down the road

Her momma wants to know
Am I washed in the blood or just the water
Her daddy wants to know
If I made enough to take his daughter

Down the road
Before he can let her go
Down the road

Now down the road
Is an engineer with an only son
And our baby girl
She believes he is the only one

Down the road

Her momma wants to know
Is he washed in the blood or only the water
And I want to know
That he makes enough to take my daughter

Down the road
When comes time to go
Down the road

Down the road
You know I want to help her go
Down the road

Down, down, down that road
