He was a writer
A man in his prime
Life was much simpler
It was a different time

He was a writer
Ideas flew on the page
Life was much simpler
In a youthful age

What do you do?
When you raised a family
And now they have to raise you

When your mind is lost
How do you live when you
Cant comprehend the cost

South Carolina
Raisin his kin
To take care of themselves
But now they gotta take care of him

When free will is taken
without sayin please
And praying to god
Will only get you to your knees

What do you do?
When you raised a family
And now they have to raise you

When your mind is lost
How do you live when you
Cant comprehend the cost

How do you please a world you don’t understand?
How do you receive, receive that helping hand?

At least if things don’t go as planned
Its good to know,
Your family will understand
At least when things don’t go as planned
Its good to know,
Your family will understand

Your family will understand
They’re here with a helping hand
They’re here with a helping hand
