From the recording Meeting Point
Lyrics
A wise man once told me -when I was young
He said, “hold on to what you believe ‘cause that’s all you really got, son.”
I miss my father more than anybody knows
You see my father always told me “Son you Gonna Reap Just What You Sow”
Life is full of choices and there’s consequences for each
Most time we make choices by what’s within’ our reach
Then we pay the price and watch our troubles grow and grow
It’s like my father told me, “You’re Gonna Reap Just What You Sow”
If you plant tomatoes - Tomatoes gonna grow. If you’re telling stories
Everybody gonna know - Drink too much whiskey - you wind up in jail.
The road that’s paved with riches can lead you straight to hell
Might sound like I’m preachin’ but it’s how my story goes
It was my father who first told me, “Son you Gonna Reap Just What You Sow”
(SOLO)
Gonna find me a good woman and finally settle down
I want my feet planted firmly on the ground
Tired of being of bering lonely - I want to learn what I should know
Just like my father always told me “Son you Gonna Reap Just What You Sow”
It’s like my father always told me “Son you Gonna Reap Just What You Sow”
