Jody The Kid Video (MV)

She would meet me in the morning

On my way down to the river

Waiting patient by the chinaberry tree

With her feet already dusty

>from the pathway to the levy

And her little blue jeans rolled up to her knees



Id pay her no attention

As she tagged along beside me

Trying hard to copy everything I did

But I couldnt keep from smiling

When Id hear somebody saying

Looky yonder there goes jody and the kid



Even after we grew older

We could still be seen together

As we walked along the levy holding hands

For as surely as the season she was changin to a woman

And Id lived enough to call myself a man



And she often lay beside me

In the coolness of the evening

Til the morning sun was shining on my bed

And at times when she was sleeping

Id smile when Id remember

How they use to call us jody and the kid



Now the worlds a little older

And the years have changed the river

Cause theres houses where they didnt used to be

And on sundays I go walking

Down the pathway to the levy

With another little girl who follows me



And it makes the old folks smile

To see her tag along beside me

Doing little things the way her mama did

But it gets a little lonesome

When I hear somebody sayin

Looky yonder there goes jody and the kid
