Lyrics Tribute To Eleanor Ann

She has the kindest heart I’ve ever known
And with open arms she'll make you feel right at home
Precious garments with her hands she will sew
Just so you can feel special wherever you go

Now if you knock on her door
You best be aware
'Cause until my momma feeds ya
You ain't goin' nowhere
Anything she's got
You can bet she will share
The shirt on her back
She'd give you to wear
She can comfort and calm a weary child
Rockin' and a singin' and givin' that smile
It doesn't take long
For them to drift off to sleep
'Cause when an angel is singin'
There's nothin' but peace

She has the kindest heart I’ve ever known

Her whole life
Well she was just over fifty and her life was in a mess
The man she loved for 30 years said he needed to confess
He said he just don't feel the same they'd grown apart he guessed
And now she's all alone in that big ol' house
Filled with emptiness

She gave her whole life to him
He just can't take it away
She gave her whole life to him
And now she's down on her knees to pray

All her life she spent cleanin' and cookin'
Raisin' four boys and never even lookin'
For a sign that would tell her of her fate
If she had just paid attention
Maybe lost a little weight

She don't pray for him to telephone
She don't want him to come back home
She's just askin' for a little strength
To make it on her own
