hard work - elliott prather lyrics
[verse 1]
dropped him off at his papa’s place
hadn’t worked a day in his life
had his patience put to the test
that hammer and nails put up a fight
[pre*chorus 1]
his papa smiled as he watched him try
and at the end of the day, his papa looked him in the eye
[chorus]
said, “hard work keeps you humble
hard living makes you old
there ain’t nothing better than a warm heart
when yours has been so cold
always remember that jesus is your friend
and that hard work always pays off in the end”
[verse 2]
time had marched on down the road
and that little boy was now all grown
followed his passions wherever they led
writing and singing his songs
[pre*chorus 2]
while the gravy train ain’t come by yet
he always remembers the words his papa said
[chorus]
said, “hard work keeps you humble
hard living makes you old
there ain’t nothing better than a warm heart
when yours has been so cold
always remember that jesus is your friend
and that hard work always pays off in the end”
[bridge]
well, i’m up here on this stage tonight
and all i can say is papa sure was right
[chorus]
hard work keeps you humble
hard living makes you old
there ain’t nothing better than a warm heart
when yours has been so cold
always remember that jesus is your friend
and that hard work always pays off in the end
