BEFORE I'M GONE
Words and Music by Jack Walker

I've had a lot of friendships
I've known a lot of pain
I've traveled down that highway
Of fortune and fame
I've touched a lot of people
From New York to L.A.
But still it's just the simple things
That drive me day to day, day to day

Chorus
And I say amen
Again and again
For just the taste of honey on my tongue
And I thank the Lord
Whenever I can
For one more cup of coffee with the dawn
Before I'm gone

There's no two ways about it
I wouldn't change a thing
What the world thinks ordinary
Can make my heart sing
I couldn't be more happy
I know where I belong
It's still the common things in life
That keep me hangin' on, hangin' on

(Chorus)
