Aaron Pritchett Lyrics
What Some People Throw Away Lyrics
An old piece of rope held up his pants
As I backed up he threw up his hands
So, I got out and closed the door
And asked him what he stopped me for
He reached down and picked up a burlap bag
There at the city dump he showed me all he had
A blanket for the colder nights
An old King James and a pocket knife
A worn out watch and a lucky rabbits foot
A picture in a broken frame
He said, �I wish I knew her name�
As he gently brushed his hand across her face
�What some people throw away�
I turned to hide my tear-filled eyes
Then shook his hand and said goodbye
To me it was just a second load
But he held it like a bag of gold
I was too ashamed to tell him at the time
Everything he was holding was mine
A blanket for the colder nights
An old King James and a pocket knife
A worn out watch and a lucky rabbits foot
A picture in a broken frame
He�ll never know I knew her name
What I�d give to put that smile back on her face
�What some people throw away�
A picture in a broken frame
He�ll never know I knew her name
What I�d give to put that smile back on her face
�What some people throw away�
Oh, it broke my heart to hear that old man say
What some people throw away
