The Song

Barry Tolbert, Lookout Lane

He was white knuckling a diamond ring

And fumbling for the dome light

Sherry Lynn knows something's up

'Cause Berry ain't ever been stuck

For words like he is tonight

Since they pulled over

Her heart's been beatin' faster

Without the song, who knows

He might have never asked her

Simple words put into lines

Just a melody and rhyme

But at that moment seemed so strong

How can a piece of poetry

Knock a grown man to his knees

And lead him by the heart to where he belongs?

Then it came on, the song

Larry Pearson had a crush

One more was never enough

He'd say, "I can quit anytime"

The whole town knew his name

They'd all say, "What a shame

He's wastin' away his life"

A stranger's quarter

Dropped into that corner jukebox

It's been almost two years

And guess what made him stop

Simple words put into lines

Just a melody and rhyme

But at that moment seemed so strong

How can a piece of poetry

Knock a grown man to his knees

And lead him by the heart to where he belongs?

Then it came on, the song

Simple words put into lines

Just a melody and rhyme

But at that moment seemed so strong

How can a piece of poetry

Knock a grown man to his knees

And lead him by the heart to where he belongs?

Like the song

It's more than just a song
