Bài hát Joshua Báo Lỗi

Joshua was an old man his beard like mountain snow

And when I was a boy we'd have jam sessions

I'd sneak off to old Sharptop with my guitar I would go

When I should've been in school learning my lessons

And he'd sip a little moonshine and I'd smoke a corncob pipe

We'd pick all day until our fingers bled

Right around supper time I'd run home in the night

Just in time to get a whoopin from my dad

My friend Josh would tell me pickin won't pay the rent

Well I set out to prove him wrong in time

And I don't guess I can recall all the hours that I spent

Just beatin on that old flat top of mine

Me and my friend Joshua Lord we must have played em all

And I got where I could put the old man to shame

But I don't guess it ever seemed to bother Josh at all

He still loved to pick em just the same


CHORUS

OH________Way back when

He was 65 I was 10

And I will never be as free______again

OH________Way back when


The summers flew by quickly as Josh and I spent our time

Writing words to songs from memories from his past

He'd tell me about the way it was and I'd find the perfect rhyme

And I couldn't believe how he wrote our songs so fast

And I never knew an old man so full of life

The love we had was so hard to explain

And I remember how the tears fell when he spoke of his late wife

And I'd give him my 6 string to ease the pain


CHORUS


And in late November I knocked on his cabin door

And I knocked and knocked but Joshua never came

I still remember how he laid there on the floor

And I went home a cryin in the rain


CHORUS


OH________Way back when

He was 65 I was 10

And I will never find a friend like him again

Oh___________________________Way back when

Oh___________________________Way back when
