From Small Things — текст песни (nitty gritty dirt band)





At 16 she quit high school

To make a fortune in the promise land

Got a job behind the counter

Of an all-night hamburger stand

She wrote faithfully home to mama:

"now mama, dont you worry none"

From small things, mama, big things one day come



It was late one friday

As he pulled in out of the dark.

He was tall and handsome;

First she took his order; then she took his heart.

They bought a house up on a hillside

Where little feet once had run

From small things, mama, big things one day come.



Good love is fleeting,

Its sad but its true

But when your heart is bleeding,

You dont wanna hear the news



She packed her bags; went to wyoming with a real estate man

They drove down to tampa in an el dorado grande

She writes home "dear mama, life is heaven in the sun"

From small things, mama, big things one day come



She shot him dead

On a sunny florida road,

But when they caught her asll she said was

She couldnt stand the way he drove.

Back home, lonesome johnny

Waits for his babys parole;

He sits high up on a hillside,

Where the wyoming river flows.

At his feet, and almost grown now,

Sits a daughter and a handsome son.

From small things, mama, big things one day come
