Without a song the day would never end
Without a song the road could never bend
Without a song a man ain't got a friend
Without a Song

That field of corn would never see a plow
That field of corn would be deserted now
A man is born but he's no good nohow
Without a Song

I got my troubles and woes
But sure as I know
the Jordon will roll
I'll get along
As long as my song
Is strong in my soul

I'll never know what makes the leaves to fall
I'll never know what makes the grass so tall
I only know there ain't no love at all
Without a song
