Lyrics I Sing for Joy - Don Williams

When I was younger, the hunger came calling
And humbly I answered, each rising and falling
I will not surrender, at this wiser and tender age
I turn the page
And I sing for joy
For the smile that it brings from the heart
Through these guitar strings
It was only noise
′Til her love put a song in the soul of this good ole boy
I sing for joy
When I was lonely, my angel found me
She sweetly and gently wrapped her arms around me
And the demons that chased me, gave up and faded away
Now I can sing
I sing for joy
For the smile that it brings from the heart
Through these guitar strings
It was only noise
Until her love put a song in the soul of this good ole boy
I sing for joy
Who could come nearer, to making life clearer
The time we're together, grows dearer and dearer
When I must travel, and I have to leave her alone
She′s in my song
And I sing for joy
For the smile that it brings from the heart
Through these guitar strings
It was only noise
'Til her love put a song in the soul of this good ole boy
I sing for joy
'Cause her love put a song in the soul of this good ole boy
I sing for joy
