Pat’s voice is on the dial,
Haven’t met someone in a while
Had to run and hide from it all back up there
I can’t go another mile,
Just ‘cause I’m in denial
I can’t even see the road through all the glare
You came when I needed someone special
You came with something more than just a care
You came with what I didn’t know I needed
So meet me at the Arkansas valley fair
Even though I’m kind of hopeless
You don’t care, then, if you’ve noticed
Something a little different for my fare
You’re easy on my eyes
An undying compromise
Your sweater even picked to match your hair
You came when I needed someone special
You came with something more than just a care
You came with what I didn’t know I needed
So meet me at the Arkansas valley fair

Some glad morning when this life is o'er
I'll fly away
To that home on God's celestial shore
I'll fly away
I'll fly away, oh glory, I'll fly away
When I die, Hallelujah, by and by
I'll fly away
Just a few more weary days and then
I'll fly away
To that land where joy will never end
I'll fly away
I'll fly away, oh glory, I'll fly away
When I die, Hallelujah, by and by
I'll fly away
Oh I'll fly away, oh glory, I'll fly away in the morning
When I die, Hallelujah, by and by
I'll fly away

There’s a farm off Hwy 194
You’ll know you’re close when you see the white barn door
It’s across the field from the historic fort
And a little dirt lane stretches out north
My grandfather he cut it
Through the plain
And while we still got the chance
Let’s walk awhile up the lane
It took leaving to know
To come back home
Help from Sergio Leone and Morricone
It’s emptier here now
Our time here wanes
I think i’m kidding myself if it aint already too late
I went to the sale
In a wood-paneled room
Granddad signed it away
Like it spelled his doom
He could no longer care for it
In its needed way
The home place and fields,
Including the lane
My grandfather he cut it
Through the plain
And while we still got the chance
Let’s walk awhile up the lane
