You've Got to Mean It Too

This guy I know was on TV
Tellin' people how to live
He sure had a lot to say…
But not a lot to give.

Look, those are real fine words…
Step back and look at what you do.
You know, it's not enough to say things…
You've got to mean them, too.

I heard Laurie sing last night…
First time in twenty years.
She sang me all her old songs…
Near brought me to tears.

Then she sang straight from the heart…
Like all great singers do.
She knows it's not enough to say things…
You've got to mean them, too.

It's a thing you teach your children.
You know they learn from watching you.
It's all in how you do things.
You've got to mean them, too.

(Guitar, steel)
It's a thing you teach your children (etc.)

I'll tell you why I wrote this song…
Folks, I wrote it for my wife.
She's always stayed beside me…
While I played 'Blindman's Bluff' with life.

And ev'ry time we touch or kiss…
Each time that I say, 'I love you.'
And every time that we make love…
With all my soul, I mean it, too.
