Jody And The Kid letra

She would meet him in the morning on his way down to the river
Waitin' patient by the chinaberry tree
With his feet already dusty from the pathway to the levee
A little blue jeans rolled up to her knees
And he'd paid her no attention as she tagged along beside him
Tryin' hard to copy everything you did
But I's often see him smiling when he'd hear somebody saying
Looky yonder there goes Jody and the kid

Well even after they grew older they could still be seen together
As they walked along the levee holding hands
For as surely as the seasons she was changing to a woman
And he'd lived enough to call himself a man
Well I often watched them walkin' in the coolness of the evening
Till the morning sun was shining on my bed
And sometimes when she was sleeping I'd smile when I'd remember
How we used to call 'em Jody and the kid

Now the world's a little older and the years have changed the river
Cause there's houses where a house there's never been
And on Sundays he goes walkin' down the pathway to the levee
With another little girl who follows him
It makes the old folks smile to see her tag along beside him
Doing little things the way her mama did
But I know he gets lonesome when he hears somebody saying
Looky yonder there goes Jody and the kid
Looky yonder there goes Jody and the kid
