Shenandoah

Shenandoah is an American country music group founded in Muscle Shoals, Alabama in 1984 by Marty Raybon (lead vocals, acoustic guitar), Ralph Ezell (bass guitar, backing vocals), Stan Thorn (keyboards, backing vocals), Jim Seales (lead guitar, backing vocals), and Mike McGuire (drums, background vocals). Thorn and Ezell left the band in the mid-1990s, with Rocky Thacker taking over on bass guitar; Keyboardist Stan Munsey joined the line up in 1995. The band split up in 1997 after Raybon left. Seals, Munsey and McGuire reformed the band in 2000 with lead singer Brent Lamb, who was in turn replaced by Curtis Wright and then by Jimmy Yeary. Ezell rejoined in the early 2000s, and after his 2007 death, he was replaced by Mike Folsom. more »

Church choir was the only high
Monday morning was the only low
Mama's way was the only right
Straight and narrow was the only road
The front porch was only built for
Sipping ice tea
The wild grass growing out in the back
Was the only weed

If only life would stay like that
If only this old world wouldn't spin so fast
If we more thankful, more grateful
Loved everyone with all we have
If we remember all the good and forget the bad
If only it was as easy as that

Main street was the only way in
Dreamin' big was the only way out
A simple prayer was the only way up
Amazing grace, how sweet the sound

If only life would stay like that
If only this old world wouldn't spin so fast
If we more thankful, more grateful
Loved everyone with all we have
If we remember all the good and forget the bad
If only it was as easy as that

Hard work was the only way to work
And true love was the only way to love

If only life would stay like that
If only this old world wouldn't spin so fast
If we more thankful, more grateful
Loved everyone with all we have
If we remember all the good and forget the bad
If only it was as easy as that

Oh, if only
Oh, if only
If only
