Lyrics
Born on the floor of an old farmhouse
Hair of ruddy blonde and curls for a crown
He fell down hard right from the start
Felt deaths blow, it left him scarred
Money was tight and times were hard
His family worked the soil of the farm
He grew up lean, sharp-shooter keen
The grip of his hands could make men scream
People were hungry, the headlines were bad
They made do with what they had
Father played fiddle, mama stomped her feet
The neighborhood kids twirled in the street
He learned guitar, he sang the notes
The curly blonde boy told some jokes
Made girls swoon and dance on their feet
At the Friday night juke joint down the street
On a cool summer evening he met the girl
Proud upon her horse, she liked the boy with curls
Down she came and gave him her hand
The two rode off across the land
The very next year they had a baby girl
With her mama's blue eyes and daddy's blonde curls
The family farm was not for them
So they moved south where the workingman went
Toiling all day at a gas station
Fueled his desire and his passion
He stood tall, like his gal upon her horse
His focus deep, he stayed the course
Writing
Line after line and verse after verse
Songs about love found and love cursed
Award worthy, brilliant, great
They made hearts stir and they made them break
He sang across the nation, he sang on the moon
The radio broadcasted his love tunes
Concert goers swooned and cried
His beautiful bride always by his side
The two were the golden pair
With his boyish curls and her blue-eyed stare
Their love set the standard from the start
Burning brightly from the hearth of hearts
The two were the golden pair
His gold records lined the stairs
His songs soared through the charts
Burning brightly from the hearth of hearts
The two were the golden pair
Their baby girl in the blue sky air
Traveled the world and back to the farm
Burning brightly from the hearth of hearts
The two were the golden pair
With his boyish curls and her blue-eyed stare
Their love set the standard from the start
Burning brightly from the hearth of hearts
