Artist/Band: Randy Travis
Lyrics for Song: Spirit of a Boy, Wisdom of a Man
Lyrics for Album: Live: It Was Just a Matter of Time [2001]



He was sixteen, tender and tough

She was too and he'd do anything to prove his love

With so much ridin' on the choice at hand

The spirit of a boy or the wisdom of a man



Hearts caught fire and love ran wild

She cried the day she called to say she was havin' his child

With so much ridin' on the choice at hand

The spirit of a boy or the wisdom of a man



There's a constant contradiction

What feels good and what feels right

But you live with decisions

That you make in your life

And what steers your direction

Is hard to understand

The spirit of a boy or the wisdom of a man



Now he drives a diesel out of Dallas

Haulin' cars out to the coast

It ain't the dream that he remembers

Just a few short years ago

But tonight at a truckstop

While drinkin' a cup

The waitress grins and winks at him

Says my shift's almost up

With so much ridin' on the choice at hand

The spirit of a boy or the wisdom of a man



The spirit of a boy or the wisdom of a man
