| Girard, Chuck - Old Dan Cotton
Thank you for visiting allgospellyrics.com
(Chuck Girard)
I remember old Dan Cotton, so old that he'd forgotten
Just how long he'd been floatin' through this life
He said that he'd fought against the Indians
And his daddy was an old line trapper
And he thinks that once or twice, he'd had a wife
I used to go down by the river after school
When old Dan was relaxin' with a fishpole
And I'd ask him what he could offer a young, young boy
Dan would start reminiscin' and sharin' his words of wisdom
And I remember I used to listen to him with joy
Old Dan, somethin' happenin' to you
Yes, old Dan, somethin' happenin' to you
I hope that you finally find what you're lookin' for
Old Dan, somethin' happenin' to you
Yes, old Dan, somethin' happenin' to you
I hope that you finally find what you're lookin' for
Then one day we couldn't find old Dan
And for a while he didn't come around
And I heard from the folks that he'd gone to the hills alone
Well I admit I was a little bit worried
Because Dan was so old and just a little foolhardy
But I knew in my heart that he'd soon be a comin' back home
Old Dan, somethin' happenin' to you
Yes, old Dan, somethin' happenin' to you
I hope that you finally find what you're lookin' for
Old Dan, somethin' happenin' to you
Yes, old Dan, somethin' happenin' to you
I hope that you finally find what you're lookin' for
Then came the message from old Doc Jones
That Dan's time had finally come
So I rushed to his side in the shack that he called home
Inside my heart I was feelin' so sad
But when I looked into that old man's eyes
I felt such a peace 'cause I knew that he was goin' home
He couldn't really speak'cause he was now so weak
But he managed a tiny smile
And in a glance I knew that he'd found
What he was lookin' for
I knew what he'd found in the woods that day
'Cause when I looked at him the very last time
I looked into the face of a man who had found the Lord
Old Dan, somethin' happened to you
Yes, old Dan, somethin' happened to you
I know that you finally found what you're lookin' for
Old Dan, somethin' happened to you
Yes, old Dan, somethin' happened to you
You're still the old Dan that I love, but you're somethin' more
