Key: E Verse 1: N.C. E Mama said he was a preacher man, us kids thought he was crazy A E Sittin in a kitchen chair down by the street E We’d ride our bikes real fast, man he would never flinch A E even when we rode an inch from his bare feet E 4:30 whistle blew, mill workers walkin home A E That was his gospel queue to stand on that chair and preach
Chorus: E B Who do you trust these days E Who can you lean on A E Who can you turn to when you need a friend B E Brother the time is short, you better hit those knees and pray A B ask Jesus in your heart before this day ends A B you never know when he’s coming back or when your leavin N.C. E can I get an amen Verse 2: E two years ago today, that old man passed away A E without any next of kin, to care about where he lay E retired mill workers came, made a circle around his grave A E we bowed our heads and then all heard somebody say Chorus: E B Who do you trust these days E Who can you lean on A E Who can you turn to when you need a friend B E Brother the time is short, you better hit those knees and pray A B ask Jesus in your heart before this day ends A B you never know when he’s coming back or when your leavin N.C.
