Legend in His Time Lyrics

INTRO: G C G
Some folks say that this life ain't worth living
Some folks say that life is just a lie
You can take so much from a man
He'll give you all he can
When he's had enough, he'll just one up and die
CHORUS:
He was a legend in his time, I don't know the reason why
When he'd sing a song, you know I'd like to cry
Now he's on the other side, standing on god's golden shore
Singing country music for the lord
Now a singing life was all he ever wanted
But a travelling life can make a man feel tired
Lay your fortune on the line
Twenty-six ain't past your prime
Now the angel band has one more for the choir
CHORUS:
He was a legend in his time, I don't know the reason why
When he'd sing a song, you know I'd like to cry
Now he's on the other side, standing on god's golden shore
Singing country music for the lord
INSTRUMENTAL:
Some folks think that this life ain't worth living
But if you have a song to sing you'll last awhile
And we'll hear his songs again
Coming in on a hickory wind
Grievous angel right beside him one more mile
CHORUS:
He was a legend in his time, I don't know the reason why
When he'd sing a song, you know I'd like to cry
Now he's on the other side, standing on god's golden shore
Singing country music for the lord
