Ray Boltz - Thrown Away Lyrics
Thrown AwayWords by Ray Boltz, Music by Steve Millikan and Ray BoltzGrandpa and me, every week or soWed go walking down a country roadLooking for somethingOthers drove right pastMaybe they were lateAnd they were dogging the throttleMaybe they justDidnt notice the bottlesShining like diamonds in the grassWe would pick them upAnd wed cash 'em inHed look at me and Id look at himAnd hed sayCHORUS:Thrown awayCan you believe the thingsThey toss asideAnd leave em where they lay?Oh, but they can be savedIf you will take the timeAnd try to find the goodAlong the wayOh, what this world throws awayMany years laterWhen my age had doubledI met a man and his name was TroubleHe said, Son, Ill give you some adviceA family is fineAnd theres a time you need themBut sure enough there will comeA time to leave emYou know you only get one lifeHe was a lonely manWithout a single friendHe looked at me and I looked at himAnd I said,CHORUSAnd maybe somedayWhen the little ones have grownI may have a grandchild of my ownAnd if I do, I can promise youOne day well walk down a country roadCHORUS1994 Word MusicASCAP (a div. of Word, Inc.), Shepherd Boy MusicASCAP (adm. by Word, Inc.), and Weedom
