Artist/Band: Randy Travis
Lyrics for Song: I Did My Part
Lyrics for Album: You and You Alone [1998]



I did my part, I tried my best

I gave my heart, I took no rest

Time will tell, if I left my mark

But I'll know full well, I did my part.



When I look down that road

What do I see?

My children's, children looking

Right back at me.

When they look back at me, and I'm

Long gone away

Will they think kindly of me

When they hear me say.



I did my part, I tried my best

I gave my heart, I took no rest

Time will tell, if I left my mark

But I'll know full well, I did my part.



When I look down that hall

What do I see?

A little baby crawling

Right back to me.

I cannot walk for him

I cannot run

But I can hold his hand

And show him how it's done.



I'll do my part, I'll try my best

I'll give my heart, I'll take no rest

Time will tell, if I left my mark

But I'll know full well, I did my part.



Build a family, build a city

Build a country, build a world.



--- Instrumental ---



Time will tell, if I left my mark

But I know full well, I did my part.



I know full well, I did my part...
