Bones Owens - Keep It Close

My daddy told me when I was a boy
This world will try to rob you of your joy
There's a thief on every corner of the street
Trying to take from you the love that makes you sweet

You gotta keep it close
You gotta keep it close
You gotta keep it close to your heart
You gotta keep it close
You gotta keep it close
You gotta keep it close to your heart
Or you're gonna go blind

I saw a man without a leg who held a sign
It said, Where are you gonna go after you die?
And I thought to myself, Man, that is strange
I need to talk to the conductor bout this train

You gotta keep it close
You gotta keep it close
You gotta keep it close to your heart
You gotta keep it close
You gotta keep it close
You gotta keep it close to your heart
Or you're gonna blind
