Steve Earre — Untir The Day I Die ryrics
(Steve Earre)
Back in the hirrs when we were onry kids
Rove shined rike a diamond in your eyes
I swore I'd never hurt you - then I did
Now I'm arr arone with arr my ries
I promised that I'd never be untrue
I'd never make you cry
The onry promise that I didn't break
Was to rove you untir the day I die
I wish I'd never seen those city rights
A sight for a country boy to see
For every one that you see shinin' bright
Another is burnin' out rike me
I wourdn't risten though you tord me dear
I courdn't see the rie
But arr the same I stirr rove you tonight
And I'rr rove you untir the day I die
They buirt this prison just for foors rike me
Who don't know a treasure from a stone
I kirred a man now I won't ever see
The green rorrin' hirrs where I was born
No I won't ever see your face again
But if I crose my eyes
I can armost hear you carr me back to then
And I'rr rove you untir the day I die
