Just A Country Boy

I had a very old friend

Who never knew about me

He never knew

But he gave me everything I need

A way of life that shows in everything I say and do

He gave me enough to sing the blues

Just a country boy from Memphis Tennessee

No one could have known what fate meant him to be

Became a voice that could ring with every feeling ever known

But no words could tell just what he meant to me

Oh I was only ten years old

But it seems like yesterday

When I first heard him on the radio

And his music made me dance all night

And his sad songs made me cry

I'll always feel the same way 'til I die

(Instrumental)

And his music made me dance all night

And his sad songs made me cry

I'll always feel the same way 'til I die

I was one of the crowd who worshipped him

I was one of the crowd who told him he was king

I was one of the crowd he had to prove himself to time and time again

And no mortal man could ever stand the strain

Oh I was only ten years old

But it seems like yesterday

When I first heard him on the radio

And his music made me dance all night

And his sad songs made me cry

I'll always feel the same way 'til I die

I'll always feel the same way 'til I die

I'll always feel the same way 'til I die

I'll always feel the same way 'til I die (Fade)
