A Thing Called Love - Jerry Reed

Six foot six he stood on the ground

Weighed two hundred and thirty-five pounds

But I saw that giant of a man brought down

To his knees by love

He was the kind of man to gamble on luck

Look you in the eye and never back up

But I saw him crying like a little whipped pup

Because of love

Can’t see it with your eyes, hold it in your hand

But like the wind it covers our land

Strong enough to rule the heart of any man

This thing called love

It can lift you up, it can let you down

Take your world and turn it all around

Ever since time nothing’s ever been found

Stronger than love

Most men are like me, they struggle and doubt

Trouble their minds day in and day out

Too busy with living to worry about

A word called love

But when I see a mother’s tenderness

As she holds her young one close to her breast

Then I thank my God this world’s been blessed

With a thing called love

Can’t see it with your eyes, hold it in your hand

But like the wind it covers our land

Strong enough to rule the heart of any man

This thing called love

It can lift you up, it can let you down

Take your world and turn it all around

Ever since time nothing’s ever been found

Stronger than love

Stronger than love
