An American Family (A Gospel Journey Album Version) - The Oak Ridge Boys[00:00:00]
Worked all his life in the rail yards[00:00:19]
Summer heat winter cold[00:00:23]
He sits by the fire now he's retired[00:00:27]
But he don't really feel all that old[00:00:32]
She comes in from the kitchen[00:00:37]
And sits on the arm of his chair[00:00:41]
He looks up and says hey lady I love you[00:00:46]
Runs his fingers through her hair[00:00:50]
And there's a picture on the wall of Jesus in the garden[00:00:56]
It's been there since they got the house in fifty-three[00:01:05]
Hey they ain't no big deal whatever go down in history[00:01:16]
It's just a little story of an American family[00:01:25]
She waited for him in world war two[00:01:35]
He fought the European campaign[00:01:40]
Their son John spent two years in nam[00:01:45]
That war it wasn't the same[00:01:49]
Billy's out in L A he's a lawyer now[00:01:54]
They worry he's so far away[00:01:58]
Jeannie got married and lives here in town[00:02:03]
She's coming over with the kids today[00:02:07]
And there's a picture on the wall of Jesus in the garden[00:02:13]
It's been there since they got the house in fifty-three[00:02:22]
Hey there ain't no big deal whatever go down in history[00:02:33]
It's just a little story of an American family[00:02:42]
But the whole world is different now[00:02:53]
Blood's been spilled on our shores[00:02:57]
In hard times we pull together[00:03:01]
That's what a family's for[00:03:06]
Hey there ain't no big deal[00:03:13]
It's written in our history[00:03:17]
We're all part of the story of an American family[00:03:22]
We're all part of the story of an American family[00:03:31]
