Other Side of the Creek Songtext
von Herman Brock Jr.

As a young boy I thought I knew
That mom and dad knew what to do
But who could ever be prepared
For this life that we all share

And when I die please bury me
On the other side of the creek
So when I rest, I still can see
My old hometown lookin′ over me


And later on deep in my teens
No one "could see what I had seen"
Just imagine my surprise
That no young man can be that wise

While growin' up, you live and learn
With every bright and shady turn
And hope some time along the way
You′ll see a good or sunny day

I've traveled up and down this earth
Did my fair share for what it's worth
And when I leave this place behind
I hope I′ve found some peace of mind
