Lyrics

Norman Rockwell World

He smelled like gasoline & thirty weight motor oil
She was soft as cotton grown in Alabama soil
She wore a tiny ring he bought on time from Sears
It never left her finger for over fifty years

CHORUS I thought their love was pure as mountain air
As faithful as a Sunday morning prayer
He was her man & she was his girl
Happy in their Norman Rockwell world
Happy in their Norman Rockwell world

He could turn a wrench or hammer a nail & board
He taught me a hard day's work was its own reward
She could mend a tear or kiss a skinned up knee
Their children brought up children who all look a lot like me
CHORUS
Everybody gathered at the church - the preacher sang & read his favorite verse
He looked good dressed in his Sunday best & we all cried as she laid him to rest
CHORUS

beautiful song. well done

Well constructed Country song. Great story line that is well delivered. Pro production and very enjoyable.
