Mark Chesnutt - The Will[00:00:00]
We gathered with the lawyer for the reading of the will[00:00:13]
Mama sat there quietly between all of us kids[00:00:22]
Then he opened up the papers and my father's words were read[00:00:29]
You could have heard a pin drop when we heard the things he said[00:00:38]
"To all my loving family I leave this old house[00:00:48]
Just split up all the money and pass it all around[00:00:56]
But now that that's all settled and it's all said and done[00:01:05]
Here's a few things that I'll leave with each and everyone"[00:01:13]
"To the boys I leave the family name the honesty and the pride[00:01:25]
To both my precious girls I leave a million lullabies[00:01:33]
Sing them to your children and let them know you care[00:01:40]
And take what strength I gave to you and be patient kind and fair"[00:01:49]
"To all I leave undying love let no one shed a tear[00:01:58]
'Cause I was the luckiest man on earth in the time that I was here[00:02:06]
And finally to mother who's love was ever true[00:02:15]
The greatest gift a man can give I leave my heart to you"[00:02:22]
We all just kind of sat there not knowing what to say[00:02:32]
Then Mama looked at all of us and said "I’d like to pray"[00:02:40]
So right there in that office in words so soft and still[00:02:51]
We all swore that we’d honor the things in Daddy’s will[00:02:59]
