[Cody Jinks, The Tone Deaf Hippies - Church at Gaylor Creek lyrics]
Like a Sunday night meetin' at
An old country church
Sometimes my grandparents would come
And take me to an old country church
House on Gaylor Creek
We all knew our neighbors
Everyone there was friends
And the preacher worked the timber
Like all other men
We were baptized by water
We were washed in the blood
I don't remember much money but
Recall lots of love
That church was a long time ago:
I'm talkin' distance and years
I'm not for certain that I could
Even get there from here
But on nights when I'm sober and not
Blinded by all that I see
My mind washes up at that
Church on Gaylor Creek
So many barrooms, so many strangers
Women, whiskey, so many dangers
That old honky tonk highway
That's a wild horse to rope
Son, I've seen enough neon
To circle the globe
That church was a long time ago:
I'm talkin' distance and years
I'm not for certain that I could
Even get there from here
But on nights when I'm sober and not
Blinded by all that I see
My mind washes up at that
Church on Gaylor Creek
My mind washes up at that
Church on Gaylor Creek
