[00:02.44] She would meet me in the morning
[00:05.12] On my way down to the river
[00:08.82] Waiting patient by the chinaberry tree
[00:13.16]
[00:14.72] her With feet already dusty
[00:17.35]
[00:18.22] >From the pathway to the levy
[00:20.59]
[00:21.22] And her little blue jeans rolled up to her knees
[00:26.60]
[00:27.85] pay I'd her no attention
[00:30.26]
[00:31.13] As she tagged along beside me
[00:34.81] Trying hard to copy everything I did
[00:39.93]
[00:41.67] But I couldn't keep from smiling
[00:44.79]
[00:45.29] When I'd hear somebody saying
[00:48.82] Looky yonder there goes Jody and the kid
[00:54.37]
[00:58.99] Even after we grew older
[01:02.76] We could still be seen together
[01:05.45]
[01:06.20] As we walked along the levy holding hands
[01:11.75]
[01:13.00] For as surely as the season she was changin' to a woman
[01:19.56]
[01:20.81] And I'd lived enough to call myself a man
[01:25.17]
[01:26.55] And she often lay beside me
[01:30.04] In the coolness of the evening
[01:33.16]
[01:33.72] Til' the morning sun was shining on my bed
[01:39.12]
[01:40.43] And at times when she was sleeping
[01:43.93] I'd smile when I'd remember
[01:46.89]
[01:47.48] How they use to call us Jody and the kid
[01:52.32]
[01:57.75] Now the world's a little older
[02:01.05] And the years have changed the river
[02:04.55] Cause there's houses where they didn't used to be
[02:09.04]
[02:10.91] And on Sundays I go walking
[02:14.22] Down the pathway to the levy
[02:17.61] With another little girl who follows me
[02:22.85]
[02:24.07] And it makes the old folks smile
[02:27.50] To see her tag along beside me
[02:30.99] Doing little things the way her mama did
[02:36.53]
[02:37.90] But it gets a little lonesome
[02:41.33] When I hear somebody sayin'
[02:45.34] Looky yonder there goes Jody and the kid
