Unspoken Tradition
Who Will Sing?
[Verse 1]
Who will sing the songs about the mountains
The old home place and our past?
Who will sing the songs of our fathers' fathers
The unspoken traditions that are fadin' fast?
[Chorus]
Who will sing those songs after they've gone?
(Who will sing those old-time songs that carry on what came before?)
Who will sing those songs after they've gone home?
(Who will sing those old-time songs, carry on after they've gone home?)
[Verse 2]
Who will play the tunes like "Sally Goodin"
And sing about the grace of God above?
Who will tell the stories of the ones who came before us
Remind us of the blessings that we lose sight of?
[Chorus]
Who will sing those songs after they've gone?
(Who will sing those old-time songs that carry on what came before?)
Who will sing those songs after they've gone home?
(Who will sing those old-time songs, carry on after they've gone home?)
[Chorus]
Who will sing those songs after they've gone?
(Who will sing those old-time songs that carry on what came before?)
Who will sing those songs after they've gone home?
(Who will sing those old-time songs, carry on after they've gone home?)
[Outro]
Who will sing those songs after they've gone?
(Who will sing those old-time songs that carry on what came before?)
Who will sing those songs after they've gone home?
(Who will sing those old-time songs that carry on...)
