The Sharpe’s

One, two, ready
I’m gonna take mine with you with me

One more time…

One, two, ready
I’m gonna take mine of you with me
I’m gonna take mine of you with me
I’m gonna take mine of you with me

So you say there’s a chance for us?
Should I “do a dance for once?”
You’re a family man, but,
Do you think about Heaven?
Do you think about me?
My old pastor told me
“When you leave, all you take
is your memories”

And I’m gonna take mine of you with me
I’m gonna take mine of you with me

So many mountains too high to climb
So many rivers, so long, but I’m
Doing the hard stuff, I’m doing my time
I’m doing it for us, for our line
Remember that for me
When I forget it, and decide to fade out of mine

So they say thats enough for Christ–
Should I only have one life?
Do you think about living?
Do you think about me?
My lover once cared
he said,
“When you take, all you leave
is your last year”

And I wanna take mine of you with me
I’m gonna take mine of you with me
Yeah, I’m gonna take mine of you with me

So many mountains too high to climb
So many rivers, so long, but I’m
Doing the hard stuff, I’m doing my time
I’m doing it for us, for our line
Remember that for me
When I forget it, and decide to fade out of mine

My sister’s first-born child
I’m gonna take that too with me
My grandfather’s last smile
I’m gonna take that too with me
It’s a beautiful life
Remember that too, for me
When I forget it, and decide to fade out of mine
