[00:00.000] 作词 : Jackson Leap [00:00.523] 作曲 : Jackson Leap [00:01.46]. [00:02.77]. [00:03.90]. [00:13.15]We gathered with the lawyer for the reading of the will [00:22.22]Mama sat there quietly between all of us kids [00:29.72]Then he opened up the papers and my father's words were read [00:38.03]You could have heard a pin drop when we heard the things he said [00:46.53]. [00:48.47]"To all my loving family I leave this old house [00:56.72]Just split up all the money and pass it all around [01:05.15]But now that that's all settled and it's all said and done [01:13.59]Here's a few things that I'll leave with each and everyone" [01:21.78]. [01:25.65]"To the boys I leave the family name, the honesty and the pride [01:33.56]To both my precious girls, I leave a million lullabies [01:40.56]Sing them to your children and let them know you care [01:49.75]And take what strength I gave to you and be patient, kind and fair" [01:57.13]. [01:58.75]"To all I leave undying love, let no one shed a tear [02:06.88]'Cause I was the luckiest man on earth in the time that I was here [02:15.76]And finally to mother who's love was ever true [02:22.19]The greatest gift a man can give, I leave my heart to you" [02:30.25]. [02:32.50]We all just kind of sat there, not knowing what to say [02:40.81]Then Mama looked at all of us and said, "I’d like to pray" [02:51.06]So right there in that office in words so soft and still [02:59.57]We all swore that we’d honor the things in Daddy’s will [03:09.63].
