James White

Deacon Charles Ledford offered up the prayer
at the end of the service this morning
After they collected up the tithes and offerings
They said father let us use it well and spend it like we should
Thank you for all these blessings and lord I wish you would
Let James White have a good day today
Let James White have a good day today

He's been my friend for 13 years
Everybody knows James round here
6'5' and a voice like a cannon
Built like a Sherman tank
For that he's got his father to thank
Jr. Master Farmer in the FFA
He went on to teach at Oklahoma State
He loves standin' in the middle of a field of wheat
And on the last verse of any hymn
Like "Pass Me Not" and "What a Friend"
11: 50 on Sunday morning
Kinda strange to hear Charlie pray
Let James White have a good day today
Let James White have a good day today

You're days are numbered I've heard him say
You never know which one you're on today
Never love a thing that can't love you back
And boy that man could love
He'd darn near crush you with a hug
He wasn't feeling well this Sunday morning
So I'm sure glad ol Charlie prayed
Let James White have a good day today
Let James White have a good day today
Let James White have a good day today
Let James White have a good day today

After Church out in the foyer as we said our goodbyes
Sister Ruby walked up and you could see it in her eyes
11: 50 this Sunday morning while Carol held his hand
James David White crossed over to the promise land

James White's gonna have a good day today
James White's gonna have a good day today
James White's gonna have a good day today
James White's gonna have a good day today
James White's gonna have a good day today
James White's gonna have a good day today
James White's gonna have a good day today
James White's gonna have a good day today
(Repeat)
