Nitty Gritty Dirt Band - From Small Things (Big Things One Day Come) Lyrics

Font:      
Align:    
  • At 16 she quit high school
  • To make a fortune in the promise land
  • Got a job behind the counter
  • Of an all-night hamburger stand
  • She wrote faithfully home to mama:
  • "now mama, dont you worry none"
  • From small things, mama, big things one day come
  • It was late one friday
  • As he pulled in out of the dark.
  • He was tall and handsome;
  • First she took his order; then she took his heart.
  • They bought a house up on a hillside
  • Where little feet once had run
  • From small things, mama, big things one day come.
  • Good love is fleeting,
  • Its sad but its true
  • But when your heart is bleeding,
  • You dont wanna hear the news
  • She packed her bags; went to wyoming with a real estate man
  • They drove down to tampa in an el dorado grande
  • She writes home "dear mama, life is heaven in the sun"
  • From small things, mama, big things one day come
  • She shot him dead
  • On a sunny florida road,
  • But when they caught her asll she said was
  • She couldnt stand the way he drove.
  • Back home, lonesome johnny
  • Waits for his babys parole;
  • He sits high up on a hillside,
  • Where the wyoming river flows.
  • At his feet, and almost grown now,
  • Sits a daughter and a handsome son.
  • From small things, mama, big things one day come
