There’s an old brick house on Highway thirty nine
Might as well be Memory Lane as I go by
The old swing set still setting on the side
I got on Christmas day when I was five
Chorus
I remember how my Daddy smiled that morning
And how proud I was be my Father’s son
Memories like that’ll last a lifetime
I thank God for each and every one
Verse II
At the Oak Hill Baptist church one Easter Sunday
As the preacher gave the altar call once more
Daddy held my hand and we walked down the isle
We said that sinner’s prayer and Mamma cried
Repeat Chorus
I got the call one late September morning
I could hear the worry in my Mamma’s voice
As we stood by Daddy’s bed tears hit the floor
Daddy reassured us, he’d be with the Lord
Repeat Chorus
