Steel-String Heart Lyrics by Jacob Oman

OMAN

2021

(Verse 1)
Man I was a mess
Had to leave Virginia far behind me
I headed out west
Where there were no trees or rivers to guide me
I tried my best, but the people, they just didn't believe me
What happens next?
'Cause I can't go back but there's no road in front of me
I've been knocked down
(Chorus)
But I've gotten this far
And I've got my guitar
And it wants to sing
And once it starts
The mountains and vallеys
The streets and the alleys
All listеn in time to my steel-string heart
(Verse 2)
Oh, I've danced in the rain and I've played in the snow
I've sang on the streets full of folks I don't know
I can't stop the rhythms that beat in my brain
The motions and colors, it's hard to explain
But when I get knocked down, I say that
(Chorus)
I've gotten this far
And I've got my guitar
And I want to sing
And once I start
The mountains and valleys
The streets and the alleys
All listen in time to my steel-string heart
Oh! Listen in time to my steel-string heart (Whoo)
(Interlude)
Whoo!
Yeah, baby!
Woo-hoo (Hey!)
(Chorus)
I've gotten this far
And I've got my guitar
And I want to sing
And once I start
The mountains and valleys
The streets and the alleys
All listen in time to my steel-string heart
Oh! Listen in time to my steel-string heart (Hey)
(Verse 3)
I can't see the future, it's so far away
I can't see the future, can't read what it says
I don't know where I'm going, I don't got a clue
But I'll figure it out, 'cause I always do
When I get knocked down, I say that
(Chorus)
I've gotten this far
Y'all know I wanna sing
And once I start
The mountains and valleys
The streets and alleys
All listen in time to my steel-string heart
Oh! Listen in time to my steel-string heart
Please listen in time to my steel-string heart
