Stubborn little man
Did a little hands on a worn out tire
He's just like his dad
Proud that he had it set aside
Until that day
Many came and took his life
Ditzy campaign
Til the rains washed away
His beautiful plan
His beautiful plan

His dreams swept away on a sad Kentucky night
He ain't gonna wait for the water what's right
Some folks just don't last that long
And he won't be dead tonight

So he got up
Got in his truck and drove around
A stroke of bad luck
He figured as much
It won't keep him down
He found fame
He lives in a place near Clearwater still
Works on a boat
Carries a load cause there's lots to feel
There's lots to feel

His dreams swept away on a sad Kentucky night
He ain't gonna wait for the water what's right
Some folks just don't last that long
And he won't be dead tonight

A happy old man
Did a little hands-on with his knife
Sleeps in the coals
The pits and the falls that made up his life
Now he's inspired
Sits by the fire, how his wisdom sings
So much to learn
Stories that burn all the joy they bring
The joy they bring

His dreams swept away on a sad Kentucky night
He ain't gonna wait for the water what's right
His dreams swept away on a sad Kentucky night
He ain't gonna wait for the water what's right
Some folks just don't last that long
And he won't be dead tonight
