Lyrics

I'll get this jet so why go to bother? Why use any time to grieve? I may got okay Land me where I lay But one last breath of life from another Might be enough to believe In the stone that rolls away The stone that rolls away Love ain't fair and life is a mother Nothing you can feel is black and white Just when you find the right piece of the puzzle Somebody goes and shoots down the light What a shame But damn good aim And no one to blame Listen to what I say And that stone's gonna roll away I never read the books that I oughta The ones everybody needs I save 'em for a rainy day Save 'em for a rainy day But how can a father talk to his daughter When she gets 'em all out to read? I guess that's what I'll say I saved 'em for your rainy day History just passed me by Well, my old math's sayin' don't even try Science teacher turned me down Well, me and her go 'round and 'round again Ah, she's under my skin So where do I begin? Oh, yeah, listen to what I say I saved 'em for your rainy day David was a guy with an eye for rumble Didn't have a lot to say But he kept those blues at bay Now his stone done rolled away He never told a lie and never had a grumble A good friend night and day I talk to him when I pray 'Cause his stone done rolled away He played a little guitar, not no dancer Up on stage, there ain't no doubt Played last year, he caught up with the cancer He might be gone but he ain't out Wait and see Ah, listen to me Come judgment day That stone's gonna roll away Stone's gonna roll away Gangway, gangway Stone's gonna roll away
