Jody And The Kid Lyrics - Roy Drusky

She would meet me in the morning on my way down to the river 

Waitin' patient by the chinaberry tree 

With her feet already dusty from the pathway to the levee 

And her little blue jeans rolled up to her knees 

And I'd paid her no attention as she tagged along beside me 

Trying hard to copy everything I did 

But I couldn't keep from smiling when I'd hear somebody saying 

Looky yonder there goes Jody and the kid 

 

Even after we grew older we could still be seen together 

As we walked along the levee holding hands 

For as surely as the seasons she was changing to a woman 

And I'd lived enough to call myself a man 

And she often lay beside me in the coolness of the evening 

Till the morning sun was shining on my bed 

And at times when she was sleeping I would smile when I'd remember 

How they used to call us Jody and the kid 

[ piano ] 

Now the world's a little older and the years have changed the river 

Cause there's houses where they didn't used to be 

And on Sundays I go walking down the pathway to the levee 

With another little girl who follows me 

And it makes the old folks smile to see her tag along beside me 

Doin' little things the way her mama did 

But it gets a little lonesome when I hear somebody saying 

Looky yonder there goes Jody and the kid
