hedrick II

chorus
now that you’ve crossed that bridge
and been to the other side
climbed upon the mountaintop
and gazed across the great divide

you finally found paradise
by looking it right in the eyes
you lived nearly 88 years
by keeping your eye on the prize

now you’re in paradise
where you always knew you’d be
and i can’t help but wonder
what beautiful things you see

verse 1
i’ve told you about prince herman
and mentioned his siblings, too
della was the oldest girl
and she completed her high school

veda married martin green
who had a brand new car
and edgar moved to w.v.a.
gone but not too far

eula wasn’t the baby child
although she wanted to be
i guess that’s why she married paul spurlock
and moved away from lee (county)

(repeat) chorus

verse 2
so lizzie begat eula
while susan begat paul
then paul & eula named their oldest child
elizabeth susan who was born in early fall

dale was the oldest son
he once rassled a bear
then along came helen jean
with her firey red hair

pauletta was named after their daddy
but after henrietta hedrick you see
and larry was born between two miscarriages
with all the personality of the three

(repeat) chorus

verse 3
larry larry larry
just where do i begin
nothing like the others
just blowing in the wind

always looking for the answer
never completely understood
rising from the ashes
standing for all good

now larry has begat brittny
a child beyond her time
grandchild of eula hedrick spurlock
oh sweet child o’ mine


(repeat) chorus)
