lyrics

People, please take my advice
Be sure and treat your people extra nice
Cause if it's real, they got your back 'til the end
And there ain't nothing so good to find, or bad to lose as a friend, as a friend

People, please take my advice
There's no good sense in telling lies
Cause while you may deceive those who believe it's true
The real lie is forgetting that you are them and they are you, they are you

Travelers, it may be a long way round
Before you find yourself homeward bound
But in your heart you can carry your family along
Just as long as you remember where you got your song, where you got your song

Though the air is wintry and the creek's all froze
You can be sure that underneath the water flows
And the birds are returning with southern songs
New tunes that we'll be learning before too long, before too long
