about

Dedicated in loving memory of Bill & Erika Simons

lyrics

Just outside of Marshall
on the road to Granite Falls
Lives a lonely farmer
moved here from St. Paul

He's been here since the '50's
with his blushing bride
She was diagnosed with cancer
and he just can't watch her die

He's almost ready to change his life
Hands on the cross, the good book by his side
A glass full of whiskey eyes on the clock
He's almost ready to say goodbye

Ever since the surgery
she can't get out of bed
So he prays to God to spare her
and take his life instead

He's almost ready to change his life
Hands on the cross, the good book by his side
A glass full of whiskey eyes on the clock
He's almost ready to say goodbye

BRIDGE
He thinks about what's fair,
what's true, what's right
The only thing that matters
is how she feels tonite

A glass full of whiskey eyes on the clock
He's almost ready to say goodbye
He's almost ready to say goodbye
