Lyrics

Things can get hard, when your money?s running down
Travelin? around, ?til your feet are off the ground
Ownin? some clothes and a Givens guitar
Move from place to place, really thinkin? who you are

Things can get lonely when you haven?t any luck
Travelin? around in an old panel truck
Writing songs of things you come across
And wonder if someday all your efforts will be lost

?Cause a folk singer lives on his dreams
Disappointments worries and schemes
I can?t fill that emptiness in between
But Jesus can

Hopes can get lost when they are far away
Settling down in the back woods someday
But are you runnin? from the things, that get worse all the time?
Instead of finding Jesus, who?ll set you free inside

?Cause a folk singer lives on his dreams
Disappointments worries and schemes
I can?t fill that emptiness in between
But Jesus can

?Cause folk people live on their dreams
Disappointments worries and schemes
I can?t fill that emptiness in between
But Jesus can
