Letras:Porter Wagoner. I Relived My Life Today.

Tonight my heart's as heavy as these cold gray walls of stone
'Cause I know I'll see my last sunrise with tomorrow's early dawn
'Cause an old gray haired judge said, "Guity for your crime you must pay"
So with the final curtain falling, I relived my life today

From the time my mama tucked me so gently in my bed
And said, "Son, don't worry about tomorrow, that's another dream ahead"
To the sad eyed old barber that just shaved my head and slipped away
These're the first and final chapters of my life I relived today

I remember the prettiest girl I ever knew with big bue eyes and lips so sweet
How every Saturday, back on the farm we'd go swimmin' in the creek
And the big tent revivals where all the neighbors would sing and pray
That's another chapter of my life I relived today

There's my old faithful dog that walked in every step I made
Sometimes he'd followed me to school
And just laid around there and wait in the shade
When my final class was over and on the way home we'd run and play
That's just another chapter of my life I relived today

My brother Jim died in his cradle, some kind of fever, they didn't know what
Dad used to look at me and say, "Son, now you're the only little man
I've got, but somewhere along life's pathway fate took my hand
And I went astray, that's another chapter of my life I relived today"

Yes, tonight my heart's as heavy as these cold gray walls of stone
'Cause I know, I'll see my last sunrise with tomorrow's early dawn
'Cause the old gray haired judge said, "Guity for your crime, you must pay"
So with the final curtain falling, I relived my life today
