THE MAN | (Lyric Video) #DonnySawyer

"The Man" was wrote about my cousin's daughters accident back in Red Bud, Illinois in the fall of 2005. Her name was changed in the song for respect but follows a real event. Artist Donny Sawyer & Jason Wyatt co-wrote this tune with me in a writing room @ NSAI (Nashville Songwriters Association International) on Music Row in Nashville Tennessee.. Donny Sawyer later cut the song on his Good Memory Album. The Man was also cut by Nashville recording group, The Lost Trailers #stormynight #caraccident #wetroads #roadside #fatality #memorial #Jesus #hope #grace #faith #DonnySawyer #JasonWyatt #TheLostTrailers THE MAN AMY WAS MY GIRL, SHE MEANT THE WORLD TO ME BUT SHE LEFT ME ONE STORMY NIGHT UNEXPECTEDLY NOW MY AMY’S IN THE HANDS OF ANOTHER MAN I CURSED HIS NAME, IT TOOK SOME TIME FOR ME TO UNDERSTAND BUT I FORGAVE HIM AND HELD ONTO MY FAITH CAUSE I KNOW MY AMY’S IN A BETTER PLACE STANDING NEXT TO THE MAN JESUS IS HIS NAME IT WAS ON A SUNDAY, IN THE FALL OF 05 I HELD ONTO MY AMY'S HAND JUST BEFORE SHE DIED ON THAT ROAD SIDE, SHE CRIED OUT HIS NAME I SCREAMED OUT AT HIM IN VAIN AS HE CARRIED HER AWAY BUT I FORGAVE HIM AND HELD ONTO MY FAITH CAUSE I KNOW MY AMY’S IN A BETTER PLACE STANDING NEXT TO THE MAN JESUS IS HIS NAME EVERYTIME I GO BACK TO THAT ROADSIDE AND STAND BY HER CROSS I MEET THE MAN HOLDING AMY’S HAND YEH HE FINDS ME WHEN I’M LOST AND I KNEEL DOWN AND WE TALK AND HE FORGIVES ME GIVES ME HOPE AND GRACE I KNOW I’LL SEE MY AMY IN A BETTER PLACE STANDIN’ NEXT TO THE MAN JESUS IS HIS NAME WE’LL STAND NEXT TO THE MAN TOGETHER JESUS IS HIS NAME © 2009 MIKE TODD (BMI) DONNY SAWYER (BMI) JASON WYATT (ASCAP)
