M. Ward - Song from Debby's Stairs lyrics

I know the next life gonna be
A good life for me
I know the next run gonna be
A good one for me

I made a drawing of accuracy
That painted it real gorgeous
I'd share it with you tonight, my friend
But I left it on the bus
I left it on the school bus

I know the next life gonna be
A good life for me
I know the next run gonna be
A good one for me

I remember Manzanita
A school made out of brick
Underneath that black scratchboard is where
I found the stick
That's where I found the yardstick

I know the next life gonna be
A good life for me
I know the next run gonna be
A good one for me

Gloria found a drawing of accuracy
That painted it real gorgeous
She leaned closely and over to me
Said she found it on the bus
She found it on the school bus
