Iris DeMent - If That Ain't Love lyrics

My dad worked at the Movieland Wax Museum He was the guy who kept the cobwebs off Sophia Loren Every morning at five he'd get up and go to work Wearing his name across the pocket of his shirt My mother told me, out back of that place there was a shed And every chance he could, he'd slip out there and bow his head While he was praying I was up the road at school But, I know, my name was presented to the god he was talkin' to And if that ain't love this mountain's just a hill If that ain't love water's what they're making in that still If that ain't love, the truest kind, if that ain't love Stars in heaven don't shine I'm driving to the d**tore listening to my radio And there she is, talking to me, the beautiful queen of soul I pull off on the shoulder, It's just more than I can stand: Aretha Franklin singing "Precious Lord Take My Hand" And if that ain't love this mountain's just a hill If that ain't love water's what they're making in that still If that ain't love, the truest kind, if that ain't love Stars in heaven don't shine
