Three Wooden Crosses - Ameritz Tribute Standards
A farmer and a teacher
A hooker and a preacher
Riding on a midnight bus bound for Mexico
One's headed for vacation
One for higher education
An two of them were searching for lost souls
That driver never ever saw the stop sign
An eighteen wheelers can't stop on a dime
There are three wooden crosses
On the right side of the highway
Why there's not four of them
Heaven only knows
I guess it's not what you take
When you leave this world behind you
It's what you leave behind you when you go
That farmer left a harvest
A home and eighty acres
The faith an love for growing
Things in his young son's heart
An that teacher left her wisdom
In the minds of lots of children
Did her best to give them all a better start
An that preacher whispered
Can't you see the Promised Land
As he laid his blood-stained bible
In that hooker's hand
There are three wooden crosses
On the right side of the highway
Why there's not four of them
Heaven only knows
I guess it's not what you take
When you leave this world behind you
It's what you leave behind you when you go
That's the story that our preacher told last Sunday
As he held that blood-stained bible up for
All of us to see
He said Bless the farmer and the teacher
An the preacher
Who gave this Bible to my mamma
Who read it to me
There are three wooden crosses
On the right side of the highway
Why there's not four of them
Now I guess we know
It's not what you take when you leave
This world behind you
It's what you leave behind you when you go
There are three wooden crosses
On the right side of the highway
