Grady Johnson was a common man Four children and some bottom land Early to bed he said, “Ah, that ain't me I gotta spend some time with my family”
Left to its own device, May becomes June And children grow up way too soon
So love your neighbor as yourself Don't use money to measure wealth Trust in God but lock your door Buy low, sell high and slow-dance more
Mamie Johnson was Grady's wife She bore his children and she graced his life Hand in hand, side by side They worked hard to simplify
Some folks have, some have not What matters most is what you do with what you've got
So love your neighbor as yourself Don't use money to measure wealth Trust in God but lock your door Buy low, sell high and slow-dance more
And more I think, I understand What my father's father meant He said, “Son, what matters most You can count on just one hand”
Love your neighbor as yourself Don't use money to measure wealth Trust in God but lock your door Buy low, sell high and slow-dance more Buy low, sell high and slow-dance more.
