Seen a man standinâ over a dead dog lyinâ by the highway in a ditch
Heâs lookinâ down kinda puzzled pokinâ that dog with a stick
Got his car door flung open heâs standinâ out on highway 31
Like if he stood there long enough that dogâd get up and run
Struck me kinda funny, seemed kinda funny sir to me
Still at the end of every hard day, people find some reason to believe
Now Mary Lou loved Johnny with a love mean and true
She said baby Iâll work for you everyday and bring my money home to you
One day he up and left her, and ever since that
She waits down at the end of that dirt road for young Johnny to come back
Struck me kinda funny, funny yea indeed
How at the end of every hard earned day, you can find some reason to believe
Take a baby to the river Kyle William they called him
Wash the baby in the water, take away little Kyleâs sin
In a whitewash shotgun shack, an old man passes away
Take the body to the graveyard and over him they pray
Lord wonât you tell us, tell us what does it mean
At the end of every hard earned day, people find some reason to believe
Congregation gathers down by the riverside
Preacher stands with his bible, groom stands waitinâ for his bride
Congregation gone, and the sun sets behind a weepinâ willow tree
Groom stands alone and watches the river rush on so effortlessly
And heâs wonderinâ, where can his baby be
Still at the end of every hard earned day, people find some reason to believe
