Three Wooden Crosses - The Global HitMakers[00:00:00]
A farmer and a teacher a hooker and a preacher[00:00:12]
Ridin' on a midnight bus bound for Mexico[00:00:18]
One's headed for vacation one for higher education[00:00:23]
An' two of them were searchin' for lost souls[00:00:29]
That driver never ever saw the stop sign[00:00:35]
An' eighteen wheelers can't stop on a dime[00:00:42]
There are three wooden crosses on the right side of the highway[00:00:47]
Why there's not four of them Heaven only knows[00:00:54]
I guess it's not what you take when you leave this world behind you[00:00:59]
It's what you leave behind you when you go[00:01:06]
That farmer left a harvest a home and eighty acres[00:01:12]
The faith an' love for growin' things in his young son's heart[00:01:18]
An' that teacher left her wisdom in the minds of lots of children[00:01:24]
Did her best to give 'em all a better start[00:01:30]
An' that preacher whispered "Can't you see the Promised Land "[00:01:36]
As he laid his blood-stained bible in that hooker's hand[00:01:42]
There are three wooden crosses on the right side of the highway[00:01:48]
Why there's not four of them Heaven only knows[00:01:55]
I guess it's not what you take when you leave this world behind you[00:02:00]
It's what you leave behind you when you go[00:02:07]
That's the story that our preacher told last Sunday[00:02:13]
As he held that blood-stained bible up for all of us to see[00:02:18]
He said "Bless the farmer and the teacher an' the preacher[00:02:24]
Who gave this Bible to my mamma who read it to me[00:02:30]
There are three wooden crosses on the right side of the highway[00:02:39]
Why there's not four of them now I guess we know[00:02:47]
It's not what you take when you leave this world behind you[00:02:53]
It's what you leave behind you when you go[00:02:58]
There are three wooden crosses on the right side of the highway[00:03:04]
