Reba Mcentire - Moving Oleta Lyrics

Font:      
Align:    
  • Moving Oleta was the hardest thing he'd done
  • The nurses saw an old woman cryin'
  • But he saw the love of his life
  • She don't know where she is
  • But she knows this isn't home
  • Love is a hard, hard road
  • He met her in the summer of thirty-seven
  • In a brush arbor down on the Rush Creek shore
  • He loved her black hair and the mischief in her smile
  • But she won him with her eyes
  • All the years and children gone
  • He still sees her the same
  • Love is a hard, hard road
  • He woke up and mornin' and drove into town
  • He stayed all day til her dinner came
  • Then he took her to her room
  • Leaned on her wheelchair like a walker
  • And covered her with a quilt that she'd made
  • Only God and a couple of nurses
  • Helped the old man shoulder the load
  • Love is a hard, hard road
  • He said "They tell me this is all that's left,
  • Say this hell on earth is best,
  • I list all those reasons and I still don't understand"
  • He cursed his body old and weak
  • Tears of failure burned his cheeks
  • He said "Oh, don't you know I prayed to die before this day"
  • Love is a hard, hard road
  • There's a shadow much darker than the shadow of death
  • When you fear the reaper might not come today
  • They line 'em up in Laz-E-Boys out in the sunroom
  • The TV keeps the quiet away
  • She can't recall his name
  • And she's the only love he's known
  • Love is a hard, hard road
  • Love is a hard, hard road
  • Moving Oleta was the hardest thing he'd done
