Come and sit by me Grace Let me talk to you girl You know I wouldn't want to hurt you for the world But the more I try Lord, the more it seems to take And I don't know if I'm gonna make it on what I make The railroad's out of business And they're firing at the mine No use at the factory You can't cross the picket line The farmer's got machinery And the soldiers are coming home They're ain't gonna be much meat left on the bone Come and sit by my side for awhile You know you always won my heart with your smile My manly pride someday it's bound to break But I don't how I'm gonna make it on what I make That old north wind Lord, it's starting to moan See the kids they can feel it in their bones And it's enough to teach a man to sing the blues A little help is something I could use Come and sit by my side for awhile….. Now when you see the preacher Tell him say a prayer for me Tell him I've always know what be will be When the morning's sun's rising Lord, I'm bound to roll Jesus, won't you look down upon a helpless soul Come and sit by my side for awhile…..
I love the tenderness he puts in his beautiful singing voice at the beginning of the song...It captivates your attention and keeps you listening till the song is over..And then..you reach for the replay as it is such an enjoyable tune with meaningful lyrics, and you listen again!!! A great share Kathleen..Glad I sat by his side for a while to listen...and I assure you I'll be back soon...with a smile....Love the tune very much...Thank you Kathleen, you're a Gem!
+jaimejaime I too love this song; thank you for stopping and taking the time to listen to Steve's version; he is pretty special and every one of his songs seems especially poignant at this particular time in his life.
Come and sit by me Grace
Let me talk to you girl
You know I wouldn't want to hurt you for the world
But the more I try
Lord, the more it seems to take
And I don't know if I'm gonna make it on what I make
The railroad's out of business
And they're firing at the mine
No use at the factory
You can't cross the picket line
The farmer's got machinery
And the soldiers are coming home
They're ain't gonna be much meat left on the bone
Come and sit by my side for awhile
You know you always won my heart with your smile
My manly pride someday it's bound to break
But I don't how I'm gonna make it on what I make
That old north wind
Lord, it's starting to moan
See the kids they can feel it in their bones
And it's enough to teach a man to sing the blues
A little help is something I could use
Come and sit by my side for awhile…..
Now when you see the preacher
Tell him say a prayer for me
Tell him I've always know what be will be
When the morning's sun's rising
Lord, I'm bound to roll
Jesus, won't you look down upon a helpless soul
Come and sit by my side for awhile…..
thankss
