Lyrics for Song: I Relived My Life Today
Lyrics for Album: The Cold Hard Facts of Life/Soul of a Convict [2008]



(Vic McAlpin)



Tonight my heart's as heavy as these cold gray walls of stone

'Cause I know I'll see my last sunrise with tomorrow's early dawn

'Cause an old gray haired judge said guity for your crime you must pay

So with the final curtain falling I relived my life today.



From the time my mama tucked me so gently in my bed

And said son don't worry about tomorrow that's another dream ahead

To the sad eyed old barber that just shaved my head and slipped away

These're the first and final chapters of my life I relived today.



I remember the prettiest girl I ever knew with big bue eyes and lips so sweet

How every Saturday back on the farm we'd go swimmin' in the creek

And the big tent revivals where all the neighbors would sing and pray

That's another chapter of my ife I relived today.



There's my old faithful dog that walked in every step I made

Sometimes he'd fallowed me to school

And just laid around there and wait in the shade

When my final class was over and on the way home we'd run and play

That's just another chapter of my life I relived today.



My brother Jim died in his cradle some kind of fever they didn't know what

Dad used to look at me and say son now you're the only little man I've got

But somewhere along life's pathway fate took my hand and I went astray

That's another chapter of my life I relived today.



Yes, tonight my heart's as heavy as these cold gray walls of stone

'Cause I know I'll see my last sunrise with tomorrow's early dawn

'Cause the old gray haired judge said guity for your crime you must pay

So with the final curtain falling I relived my life today...
