Go Back

A Thing Called Love

Words & Music by Jerry Hubbard

Lyrics:

Six foot six stood on the ground, weighted 235 punds
But I saw that giant of a man brought down to his knees by love
He was the kind of man who would gamble on love
Look you in the eye and never back up
But I saw him crying like a little wet pup because of love

Can't see it with your eyes, hold it in your hands
Like the rules that govern our land
Strong enough to rule the heart of every man, this thing called love

It can lift you up, it can put you down
Take your world and turn it all around
Ever since time nothing's ever been found stronger than love
Men like me they worry and doubt
Trouble their minds day in and day out
Too busy a livin' to worry about a thing called love

When I see a mother's tender lips
As she holds a you close to her ribs
Then I say thank God this world will win with the thing called love
