Half N’ half

v

Keaton was delivered strugglin’ to stay warm

and he grew about as cold as the day he was born,

He had a bit of warmth, but only his parents saw-

well it wasn’t very long until the family knew

when Keaton came around, then so did the blues-

They were hoping someday he’d find himself a fire-

The preachers wouldn’t help him

thought that nobody could

till a smile came ‘round and started burnin’ some wood,

He felt a kinda fire he thought he’d never have-

C

Well Keaton believed he had found the one

from him she brought out hidden fun

cuz that fire started to feel a bit like home-

but he’s a country boy, and she’s city queen,

And they couldn’t settle in between-

so they ended off to avoid the half N’ half-

V
He may have left the one who started the spark,

But the fire never left from inside of his heart

And he found something he knew he couldn’t lose-

cuz he found his family, his home, and his dream

and a grace that showed he’d never leave-

the good LORD worked on his troubled soul-

C

So maybe someday he’ll meet the one

finally have himself a son

and pass on down the good grace of GOD-

But for now that’s all he ever needs

that warmth that brought him to his knees

and a vow to never leave it half N’ half-
