Jerry Reed
A Thing Called Love
Six foot six, he stood on the ground
Weighed two hundred and thirty five pounds
But I saw that giant of a man brought down
To his knees by love

He was the kind of man that would gamble on luck
Look you in the eye and never back up
But I saw him crying like a little whipped pup
Because of love

You can't see it with your eyes, hold it in your hand
Like the wind that covers our land
Strong enough to rule the heart of any man
This thing called love

It can lift you up it can let you down
Take your world and turn it all around
Ever since time nothing's ever been found
Stronger than love

Most men are like me, they struggle in doubt
Trouble their minds day in and day out
Too busy with living to worry about
A thing called love

But when I see a mother's tenderness
As she holds her young one to her breast
I thank God that this world's been blessed
With a thing called love
You can't see it with your eyes, hold it in your hand
Like the wind that covers our land
Strong enough to rule the heart of any man
This thing called love

It can lift you up it can let you down
Take your world and turn it all around
Ever since time nothing's ever been found
Stronger than love
