Irish Tenor

Tall, bearded smile full of laughter
Swing low, sweet chariot
Strong arms covered with a pearl snap work shirt
Coming for to carry you home
Riding in the truck down a quaint country road
Swing low, sweet chariot
Windows down, no a/c, wind blowing through my hair
Coming for to carry me home
Munching on a BabyRuth candy bar, headed to the pasture
Swing low, sweet chariot
Calm, patient, gentle hands weaving through the cattle, pouring dust upon their backs
Coming for to carry you home
