Mac Davis, the famous country singer, released an album in 1974,
*”Smell the roses along the way”*
“Hey Mister,
Where you going in such a hurry,
Don’t you think it’s time you realized,
There’s a whole lot more to life than work and worry.
The sweetest things in life are free,
And there right before your eyes
You got to Stop and Smell the roses
You’ve got to count your many blessings everyday
You’re gonna find your way to heaven is a rough and rocky road
If you don’t Stop and Smell the roses along the way.
Before you went to work this morning in the city
Did you spent some time with your family
Did you kiss your wife and tell her that she’s pretty.
Did you take your children to your breast and love them tenderly.
You got to Stop and Smell the roses,
You’ve got to count your many blessings everyday
You’re gonna find your way to heaven is a rough and rocky road
If you don’t Stop and Smell the roses along the way.
Did you ever take a walk through the forest,
Stop and dream a while among the trees,
Well you can look up through the leaves right straight to heaven,
You can almost hear the voice of God
In each any every breeze.
You got to Stop and Smell the Roses
You’ve got to count your many blessings everyday
You’re gonna find your way to heaven is a rough and rocky road
If you don’t Stop and Smell the Roses along the way.
This too shall pass,
You got to Stop and Smell the roses,
You’ve got to count your many blessings everyday,
Enjoy your Sunday, take time to *Stop and Smell the roses* today and stay blessed forever.
