Jennings & Keller - Sandy Lyrics

Laurie Jennings Oudin


Sandy, the hills of North Georgia

They still look the same

And Sandy, I know you’re sorry

You’re livin’ it every day


I took some pictures for you

That old barn we ran through’s falling down

But the dusty road goes on and on

Pulling us to that town


Sandy, remember Mr. Brickell?

He’s still making ‘shine.

The Bower kid drank too much one night

Been in the hospital for some time


Nobody told the truth about it

And that kid, well, now he can’t talk

Just havin’ fun was all he wanted

What he wanted wasn’t too smart


If I could undo the damage

Wash away the pain

I’d walk that tightrope for you babe

Just to see your smile again


Sandy, when the moon’s just right

There’s a halo in the sky

And Sandy, I said I’d wait for you

But the years, they’re dragging by


I don’t know what commitment is

I only know it’s hard

There’s razor wire all around my mind

And I’m all marked up with scars



If I could undo the damage

Wash away the pain

I’d walk that tightrope for you babe

Just to see your smile again


It could’a been me

But it was you

How free is free?
I’m doing time too


Sandy, I gotta go now

I’ll write again real soon

Maybe I can come visit

Some Sunday afternoon


You take care of yourself

Just do as they say

You know how your temper is

Just take it day by day


If I could undo the damage

Wash away the pain

I’d walk that tightrope for you babe

Just to see your smile again


I’d walk that tightrope for you babe

Just to see your smile again
