Artist/Band: Roy Drusky
Lyrics for Song: Jody and the Kid
Lyrics for Album: Kitty Wells and Roy Drusky (Playback) [1986]



(Kris Kristofferson)



She would meet me in the mornin' on my way down to the river

Waitin' patient by the chinaberry tree

With her feet already dusty from the pathway to the levee

And her little blue jeans rolled up to her knees.



And I'd paid her no attention as she tagged along beside me

Tryin' hard to copy ev'rything I did

But I couldn't keep from smilin' when I'd hear somebody sayin'

Looky yonder there goes Jody and the kid.



Even after we grew older we could still be seen together

As we walked along the levee holdin' hands

For as surely as the seasons she was changin' to a woman

And I'd lived enough to call myself a man.



As she of'en lay beside me in the coolness of the evenin'

Till the mornin' sun was shining on my bed

And at times when she was sleepin' I would smile when I'd remember

How they used to call us Jody and the kid.



--- Instrumental ---



Now the world's a little older and the years have changed the river

Cause there's houses where they didn't used to be

And on Sundays I go walkin' down the pathway to the levee

With another little girl who follows me.



And it makes the ol' folks smile to see her tag along beside me

Doin' little things the way her mama did

But it gets a little lonesome when I hear somebody sayin'

Looky yonder there goes Jody and the kid...
