The story is told
Strange as it sounds
In Louisiana
A turtle fell
From the clouds
Some just believe
Some only doubt
And some proclaim
They've got it all
Figured out
Some keep their thoughts
To themselves
Afraid to come out
Of their shell
In my heart of hearts
I want to believe
That love never fails
And peace will prevail
And hope lives on
If I can get
To the deepest part
Inside my heart of hearts
There is a man
Who used bowling balls
To make a rosary
In his yard on the ground
Some people laugh
Some only frown
Some shake their heads
And wonder
What it's about
Some walk around
Counting prayers
Looking to find
Faith to spare
Some like to hear
Themselves talk
But seldom say
Anything at all
