Eleventyseven - All the Doubt in Town lyrics

They both grew up in a rusted out old pick up truck Said 'I do" in late October By November she was showing By July the jig was up So they bought a house Past the rundown Church outside of town She said 'Baby I can't take it Maybe this was a mistake I 'm not the type to settle down.' And he said 'All the doubt in town Ain't enough to shake the ground that my feet have been walking on Girl I love you now 'til I hear that trumpet sound Oh, wherever you are, I belong.' He lost his job At the sawmill around Christmas time Yeah the bills were piling up And all the odd jobs weren't enough to keep the timber on the fire She said 'Oh my God My Daddy warned me that this day would come My Momma's waiting in the car I can't let my baby starve Honey you and I are done.' And he said 'All the doubt in town Ain't enough to shake the ground that my feet have been walking on Girl I love you now 'til I hear that trumpet sound Oh, wherever you are, I belong.' Sixty years go by In the blinking of the young girl's eye All five kids are up and grown Having families of their own And they hear Poppa's gonna die She takes his hand Says 'God, oh please don't take away my man! Baby I can't let you leave Why did you put up with me? How did you know where we would land?' And he said 'Girl I love you now But I hear that trumpet sound And I've gotta be moving on Though I leave you now I'll be up there looking down Keeping Heaven's porch light on.' 'Cause All the doubt in town Ain't enough to shake the ground that my feet have been walking on Girl I love you now 'til I hear that trumpet sound Oh, wherever you are, I belong.'
