In My Hands

Here I am in Louisiana
Man the trees are green
And the rivers brown
I've been staying busy
Raising boys, seems like
Every minute's broken down
Into things I gotta do
And there's a surplus here
Of cajun queens
Southern belles to do the dance
An arrow just go stuck in me
And it feels like I've been stuck real bad

Cause I got you in my heart
No matter what I do to shake it 
It's there when I go to sleep
And it's right there when I wake up
I don't know what's going on
But man I understand
That I've got you in my heart
But I need you in my hands

Who knows what turns us on
Who knows what turns us off
Distance tells a lot of tales
About what we really want
I've been like a cowboy God forbid
Seeking fresh and grener pastures
Ain't ever had the urge after leaving one
To go back there

Refrain

These old hands
Can touch your body
In a way you like to be touched
And these old hands 
Can hold you baby
In a way that shows you you're loved
And theses old hands can play guitar
And theses old hands can say my prayers
And everytime I get down on my knees
I say wherever she is
I want to be there
Be there

Refrain
