Anniversary song to my wife
The night we met while my band was practicing on my mom's carport
Jesus and you
2025
Donnie Priest/August 76 Music
It was a hot summer's night
On my mama's car port
The band was practicing there
You walked up in those shorts
When I looked into your eyes
Should have known you're the one
That was fifty years ago
When our story had begun
I've dreamed of writing songs
Performing on the stage
My music on the radio
Being all the rage
All of that was not to be
I was just a working stiff
Putting in long hours
On the midnight shift
(chorus)
I don't need riches
I don't need fame
I don't want a mansion
Or a private plane
Life's more than possessions
I know this is true
All I need in my life
Is Jesus and you
We've lived life together
For all these years
Had each other's back
Through laughter and tears
Jesus is our Savior
On Him we depend
His love for all of us
Will never end
(bridge)
I'll write you this song
Play the cords in this guitar
How the world spins too fast
And life can be so hard
Grateful God has blessed us
He holds our family tight
And how God has graced me
With you in my life
(outro)
I don't need riches
I don't need fame
I don't want a mansion
Or a private plane
Life's more than possessions
I know this is true
All I need in my life
Is Jesus and you
All I need in my life
Is Jesus and you
