Seen a man standin' over a dead dog lyin' by the highway in a ditchHe's lookin' down kinda puzzled pokin' that dog with a stickGot his car door flung open he's standin' out on Highway 31Like if he stood there long enough that dog'd get up and runIt struck me kinda funny, seemed kinda funny sir to meStill at the end of every hard earned day people find some reason to believeNow Mary Lou loved Johnny with a love mean and trueShe said "Baby I'll work for you every day, bring my money home to you"One day he up and left her and ever since thatShe waits down at the end of that dirt road for young Johnny to come backStruck me kinda funny, funny yeah to me*How at the end of every hard earned day people find some reason to believeTake a baby to the river, Kyle William they called himWash the baby in the water, take away little Kyle's sinIn a whitewash shotgun shack an old man passes awayTake his body to the graveyard, over him they prayLord won't you tell us, tell us what does it meanAt the end of every hard earned day people find some reason to believeCongregation gathers down by the riversidePreacher stands with a Bible, groom stands waitin' for his brideCongregation gone and the sun sets behind a weepin' willow treeGroom stands alone and watches the river rush on so effortlesslyWonderin' where can his baby beStill at the end of every hard earned day people find some reason to believeBy JPR
