[ti:Jody and the Kid] [ar:Kris Kristofferson] [al:The Complete Monument & Columbia Album Collection] [by:] [offset:0] [00:00.00]Jody and the Kid - Kris Kristofferson [00:01.12]Written by：Kris Kristofferson [00:02.24]She would meet me in the morning [00:04.95]On my way down to the river [00:08.32]Waiting patient by the chinaberry tree [00:14.12]With her feet already dusty [00:17.70]From the pathway to the levee [00:20.96]And her little blue jeans rolled up to her knees [00:27.73]I'd pay her no attention [00:30.80]As she tagged along beside me [00:34.49]Trying hard to copy everything I did [00:41.34]But I couldn't keep from smiling [00:45.13]When I'd hear somebody saying [00:48.68]Looky yonder there goes jody and the kid [00:58.61]Even after we grew older [01:02.53]We could still be seen together [01:06.02]As we walked along the levee holding hands [01:12.73]For as surely as the season she was changin' to a woman [01:20.66]And I'd lived enough to call myself a man [01:26.51]And she often lay beside me [01:30.35]In the coolness of the evening [01:33.61]Til' the morning sun was shining on my bed [01:40.43]And at times when she was sleeping [01:43.99]I'd smile when I'd remember [01:47.36]How they use to call us jody and the kid [01:57.73]Now the world's a little older [02:01.12]And the years have changed the river [02:04.41]Cause there's houses where they didn't used to be [02:11.01]And on sundays I go walking [02:14.48]Down the pathway to the levee [02:17.73]With another little girl who follows me [02:24.10]And it makes the old folks smile [02:27.30]To see her tag along beside me [02:31.12]Doing little things the way her mama did [02:37.68]But it gets a little lonesome [02:41.40]When I hear somebody sayin' [02:45.39]Looky yonder there goes jody and the kid
