"The Firefly's Song" Lyrics

/ 5
Song updated, review now!
I used to run in a young man's boots
With a young man's heart
and a young man's roots
But now I stand where
A young man stood before
I don't run like I used to
This ol' man don't run no more.

You used to talk and I used to not
I don't listen but I hear a lot
Don't believe for a second that
My key won't fit your door
I don't want you like I used to
This ol' man wants you no more.

Chorus:
Hey, hidey-ho, I used to go where the devil wouldn't go
Where the river runs still and the water don't flow
Heaven couldn't stop me then
Hey, hidey-ho, good Lord willin' and the creek don't rise
Life goes by like the firefly's
Where the devil sits with a grin.

I used to sing with a young man's voice
A young man't heart and a young man's chioce
I hope my song is what you're longing for
I don't sing like I used tom sometimes less is more.

Chorus:
Hey, hidey-ho, I used to go where the devil wouldn't go
Where the river runs still and the water don't flow
Heaven couldn't stop me then
Hey, hidey-ho, good Lord willin' and the creek don't rise
Life goes by like the firefly's
Where the devil sits with a grin.

This crazy life is all we got
Like a shoestring tied in a beggars knot
And at the end that's what this story shows
I don't love you like I used to, this ol' man loves you more...
