Piece of Wood and Steel - David Allan Coe[00:00:00]
I can feel your arms around me[00:00:05]
Like it was yesterday[00:00:08]
I can feel your hearing next to me[00:00:10]
And hear your laughter gay[00:00:12]
You tried to tell me what was right[00:00:15]
And I told you what was real[00:00:17]
All I ever live for now[00:00:20]
Is this piece of wood and steel[00:00:22]
In a world that's full of trouble[00:00:31]
A world that's full of pain[00:00:34]
Lord many fall beside the road[00:00:36]
And they never rise again[00:00:39]
Many more are bending low[00:00:42]
Or broken at the wheel[00:00:44]
All I need to carry on[00:00:46]
Is this piece of wood and steel[00:00:49]
I was born my mother's only son[00:00:58]
She loves me all she can[00:01:00]
But there isn't much to say to her[00:01:03]
Since I became a man[00:01:05]
And I often met the devil[00:01:08]
But I never made a deal[00:01:10]
I just thank the lord for hands to play[00:01:13]
The piece of wood and steel[00:01:15]
It's face is scarred and beaten[00:01:24]
Like the ragged clothes I wear[00:01:26]
Like the body that god gave me[00:01:29]
I might give it better care[00:01:31]
But I play it for the ladies[00:01:34]
And I play it for a meal[00:01:36]
I play the strings just to hear 'em ring[00:01:39]
On this piece of wood and steel[00:01:41]
I'm growing tired of searching now[00:01:50]
There's nothing much I crave[00:01:52]
Give or take a little time[00:01:55]
And you can write it on my grave[00:01:57]
There's nothing more I care to own[00:01:59]
Nothing left to feel[00:02:02]
All I ever wanted[00:02:04]
Was this piece of wood and steel[00:02:07]
When you told[00:02:10]
I can feel your arms around me[00:02:27]
Like it was yesterday[00:02:30]
I can feel your hearing next to me[00:02:32]
And hear your laughter gay[00:02:35]
You tried to tell me what was right[00:02:37]
And I told you what was real[00:02:39]
All I ever live for now[00:02:42]
Is this piece of wood and steel[00:02:44]
In a world that's full of trouble[00:02:48]
A world that's full of pain[00:02:50]
Lord many fall beside the road[00:02:52]
And they never rise again[00:02:55]
Many more are bending low[00:02:58]
Or broken at the wheel[00:03:00]
All I need to carry on[00:03:03]
Is this piece of wood and steel[00:03:05]
I was born my mother's only son[00:03:23]
She loves me all she can[00:03:25]
But there isn't much to say to her[00:03:28]
Since I became a man[00:03:30]
And I often met the devil[00:03:33]
But I never made a deal[00:03:35]
I just thank the lord for hands to play[00:03:37]
The piece of wood and steel[00:03:40]
I'll be playing this guitar till the day I die[00:03:45]
