Sweet Sally

You got eyes
I recognize
They′ve been in our family for a long, long time

And you don't know yet
But I′m gonna be your best friend
And on my shoulder you can always cry

You know
Your mama gave you that nose
And your smile that shows
Everybody you know
That you got that light

And as you grow
I'ma have to let go
Of your little bitty toes
But you'll always be mine

And if this world knocks you off of your feet
I′m gonna have your back through everything!

I′ll always call you
Sweet Sally
Sweet like a wildflower
To a bumble bee
Valley low to the highest tower
That's my love for thee
Gladly
I will give all my hours
To you endlessly!

I will be complete
With sally next to me!

My wish for you
Is that you know the truth
This life is just a moment
It ain′t nothing to hold on to
And the weight of the world
It ain't meant for you girl
Keep your eyes up high and your ears in tune

And just know

I gave you that soul
Makes your head bob slow
To the rhythm that goes on through your mind

And when you′re low
There's somebody that knows you better
Than no one ever could ever try

And when this
World talks
Down on your name
You keep on shining right on through the rain!

And they all gon′call you
Sweet Sally
Sweet like a wildflower
To a bumble bee
Valley low to the highest tower
That's my love for thee
Gladly
I will give all my hours to you endlessly
I will be complete
With Sally next to me!
