Old Fords and a natural stone lyrics

Papa's words ringin' in my ears: "son you got to get tighter with your tears.

Just because she's leaving don't start believing

that your rock'n roll days are gone.

'Cause nothing lasts forever but old Fords and a natural stone.

And when those sad songs and slow hurtin' songs

Get you down while you're alone it won't hurt long.

'Cause nothing lasts forever like old Fords and a natural stone.

Diamonds are forever and these old cars they still keep rolling on.

And all those I love you forever's they're just words that can't be depended on.

'Cause when they're wrong they're wrong and when they're gone, they're gone.

'Cause nothin' lasts forever but old Fords and a natural stone".

Papa's words ringin' in my ears: "son you got to get tighter with your tears".
