Ray Wylie Hubbard - When She Sang Amazing Grace lyrics
[Ray Wylie Hubbard - When She Sang Amazing Grace lyrics]
When I was a child my mama would hold me
In her lovin' arms when the
Storm clouds come along
The dark clouds rising, storms a ragin'
She'd sing an old gospel song
With the thunder crashing, lightning flashing
I found comfort in the words
That she would sing
Beyond these dark skies there's a rainbow
That only love and the sun will bring
When she sang "Amazing Grace"
I felt tears in my eyes
When she sang "Circle Be Unbroken"
I knew there were bluer skies
Time rolled on, the circle was broken
Mama went on to somewhere beyond the blue
I started ramblin' that lost highway
And hard livin' took away the
Little child she knew
I started drinking and I started gambling
I had no one to look over me
There was no blue skies, only sorrow
And I could only hear her sing in my memory
When she sang "Amazing Grace"
I felt tears in my eyes
When she sang "Circle Be Unbroken"
I knew there were bluer skies
I was runnin' with a wild bunch
Hanging with the rough and the rowdy kind
I was living fast and I was dying young
So alone, Lord, I had a worried mind
I was drunk and I was hurtin'
Somewhere on the streets in New Orleans
When I stumbled into a little shelter
I saw an angel with a tambourine
When she sang "Amazing Grace"
I felt tears in my eyes
When she sang "Circle Be Unbroken"
I knew there were bluer skies
When she sang "Amazing Grace"
I felt tears in my eyes
When she sang "Circle Be Unbroken"
I knew there were bluer skies
When she sang "Amazing Grace"
I felt tears in my eyes
When she sang "Circle Be Unbroken"
I knew there were bluer skies
In her lovin' arms when the
Storm clouds come along
The dark clouds rising, storms a ragin'
She'd sing an old gospel song
With the thunder crashing, lightning flashing
I found comfort in the words
That she would sing
Beyond these dark skies there's a rainbow
That only love and the sun will bring
When she sang "Amazing Grace"
I felt tears in my eyes
When she sang "Circle Be Unbroken"
I knew there were bluer skies
Time rolled on, the circle was broken
Mama went on to somewhere beyond the blue
I started ramblin' that lost highway
And hard livin' took away the
Little child she knew
I started drinking and I started gambling
I had no one to look over me
There was no blue skies, only sorrow
And I could only hear her sing in my memory
When she sang "Amazing Grace"
I felt tears in my eyes
When she sang "Circle Be Unbroken"
I knew there were bluer skies
I was runnin' with a wild bunch
Hanging with the rough and the rowdy kind
I was living fast and I was dying young
So alone, Lord, I had a worried mind
I was drunk and I was hurtin'
Somewhere on the streets in New Orleans
When I stumbled into a little shelter
I saw an angel with a tambourine
When she sang "Amazing Grace"
I felt tears in my eyes
When she sang "Circle Be Unbroken"
I knew there were bluer skies
When she sang "Amazing Grace"
I felt tears in my eyes
When she sang "Circle Be Unbroken"
I knew there were bluer skies
When she sang "Amazing Grace"
I felt tears in my eyes
When she sang "Circle Be Unbroken"
I knew there were bluer skies
