[00:12.67]Preacher gave it to him when he was eight,
[00:17.00]That Sunday morning he got saved in that little church
[00:22.43]
[00:24.22]Grandaddy totted it to Bible school
[00:28.56]I bet back then it looked brand new, not a faded word
[00:34.74]
[00:35.80]Now the cover's torn and the leather's worn... on that Old King James
[00:44.80]He took it with him overseas, England, France and Germany
[00:50.83]Right there in the middle of hell
[00:55.32]Said he read it every night, he swore that it'd saved his life
[01:02.50]His only hope when there was no hope left
[01:07.11]Was in that Old King James
[01:17.66]
[01:22.70]Passed it down to Momma on the day he died
[01:27.70]Sat there for the longest time just gathering the dust
[01:32.95]
[01:33.99]But when life would take a sharp turn every now and then
[01:39.05]And she would just start missing him, I'd see her pick it up
[01:44.49]
[01:46.00]Now the cover's torn and the leather's worn.... on that Old King James
[01:55.10]You'll find on every other page, yellow lines or tear drop stains
[02:01.03]Every chapter of that good book
[02:05.16]Been through cancer, war and crazy kids, all the stupids things I did
[02:12.69]I may never know the toll I took... on her and that Old King James
[02:29.55]
[02:49.00]Yeah I'm the one who's got it now,
[02:52.00]She said read it when you're feeling down and I said Yes Ma'am
[02:59.30]Now the cover's torn and the leather's worn... on that Old King James.
