Family Reunion
(Barker)
They used to pick mountain flowers
Sit around and talk for hours
They’d walk down to the stream
Holding hands and sharing dreams
They married in the little country chapel in the glen
Everything was different way back then
Now she sits in the rocking chair
With an empty frozen stare
He combs her silver hair
She don’t even know he’s there
He pauses for a moment for a stroll down
Memory Lane
To their little cottage cradled in the cane
Chorus:
We’re gonna go to a family reunion
Someday soon we’ll meet up in the sky
No more trouble, trials, or tribulation
Our loved ones are a' waitin’ over on the other side
A picture hangs in his mind
How she looked back in ’39
Wearing the cotton dress
The one that she knew he liked best
Her hair was long and flowing
And her smile lit up the room
Her fragrance like the wildflowers in bloom
Repeat Chorus |
