franklin limestone

charlie daniels band, the

franklin limestone

always been my home

i was born in nashville

a place i call my own

where the mountains

and the rivers

and the valleys

we were married

you and me

we were both so happy just being together

like a possum in the wood

so please forgive me if i forget to tell you

what you mean to me

hard cold winter took away my mother

papa got the fever

lord he said he couldn't leave her

you carried me through bad times

through the worst times

you were my driving wheel

we were both so happy just being together

like a possum in the wood

so please forgive me if i forget to tell you

what you mean to me

workin in a coal mine

slaving in the day time

lookin to the good lord for any peace of mind

the feeling if you left me on that hillside

would break this heart of mine

we were both so happy just being together

like a possum in the wood

so please forgive me if i forget to tell you

lord

what you mean to me
