We've been together for a million years
Standing upright and tall
We've seen folks walk a trail of tears
We can't say we haven't seen it all
If I wanna leave, I can go
I've got a life that's mine
If you say that you don't love me
I can say you're lying
You can't say that I don't love you
I've got faith in God above you
He's got love enough for us all
We've been broke, we've been weeping
I can't say that he's been sleeping
He's the one who made me write this song
You say your shoes are useless
God gave them a million uses
He wants you to get off your lazy tail
On my break I see your photo
Doesn't mean I'm coming back
God is god
Faith is fact
You can't say that I don't love you
I've got faith in God above you
He's got love enough for us all
We've been broke, we've been weeping
I can't say that he's been sleeping
He's the one who made me write this song
I feel like it's been a million years
Since I was upright and tall
But they need me in Texas
To build that southern wall
If I wanna leave, I can go
I have a life that's mine
If they say that I don't love them
I can say they're lying
You can't say that I don't love you
I've got faith in God above you
He's got love enough for us all
We've been broke, we've been weeping
I can't say that he's been sleeping
He's the one who made me write this song

My baby got me senseless I can hear a word she's saying
I love her so much I'm drinking and giving up on praying
My baby got me senseless I can't even see my kids
What they've done in school is or what they're teacher says
A photograph ain't useless if it makes you live one day
With your body in a foreign land and your baby far away
My baby got me senseless I can't taste her on my lips
All I've got's a memory from 1966
My baby got me senseless I can't feel my phantom limbs
That I received in a war or two because living is a sin
A photograph ain't useless if it makes you live one day
With your body in a foreign land and your baby far away
You know I've been thinking a lot baby
Looking at your picture and all
About the times that we used to be together
When we used to be in love
Looking at this photo of your curly hair
I know I'm still in love with you
I may not look like a whole lot these days
I may not be able to do a whole lot for you, the kids, for me or anybody
But I was wondering if maybe I could just come home
What do you say, baby?
My baby got me senseless I can't smell the gasoline
That he had poured on me just to see me scream
My baby got me senseless which is neither here nor there
Because when you got no body, your body's everywhere
A photograph ain't useless even if it makes you feel that way
Though it may not be the reality, the memory can blow you away
