Lyrics
Please take Grandma's old king James bible
Keep it near your heart
It will keep you safe my love while we're far apart
Oh, Uncle John would always say never say goodbye
So I'll just say so long for now with hurry home drops as my eye
And may the road rise to meet you
May the wind be always at your back
And may the sun keep you warm
And may the rain fall softly on your face
Bet that you forget your toothbrush
Take some spending cash
You'll catch cold don't act like that
This weather ain't gonna last
Oh, just call up and ask for you
As soon as you get there
Cause Dad you know we love you
So for heaven's sake take care
And may the road rise to meet you
May the wind be always at your back
And may the sun keep you warm
And may the rain fall softly on your face
Until we meet again
May God hold you in the palm of my hand
And may the road rise to meet you
May the wind be always at your back
And may the sun keep you warm
And may the rain fall softly on your face
And may the road rise to meet you
May the wind be always at your back
And may the sun keep you warm
And may the rain fall softly on your face.
