Maxwell |
Maxwell was a measured man, played his cards with a heavy hand |
Until the day his fortune fell, ask me how I knew him well |
Born unto a family, stump in place of a family tree |
Only child left alone, mother dead and his father gone |
Maxwell my boy |
What will be your fate |
Oh Oh it’s not too late |
Maxwell my boy |
what will be your fate… |
Had more land than you or me, he owned damn near everything |
House was on the highest hill, standing there, standing still |
Looking back as I neared the end, yeah no one there to call a friend |
All he had was all he owned, behind the silent walls of stone |
Maxwell my boy |
What will be your fate |
Oh, oh, it’s not too late |
Maxwell my boy |
what will be your fate… |
Well I used to be a measured man, played my cards with a heavy hand |
Truest love, never known, this lonesome tale, is my own |
When the night bird sings it’s song, yeah and I regret all I’ve done |
I recall those darkest days, and thank the lord that an can change |
Maxwell my boy |
What will be your fate |
Oh, it’s not too late |
Maxwell my boy |
what will be your fate |
Oh, it’s not too late |
Oh, it’s not too late |
