Lyrics

Leaning On A Rock That Never Rolls  

 

 

 

With a hairbrush for a microphone

An old lamp for my spotlight

With young girl dreams and confidence

I'd hit my bedroom stage each night

Building a foundation for those future hungry years

Working on a roadmap, the one that brought me here

 

 

Never knew someone was listening

Outside my bedroom door

Never knew that she was watching

As my dream grew more and more

And when the cards were on the table she gave up everything

To stand there solid as a rock knowing I was born to sing

 

     I'm leaning on a rock that never rolls

     When you're following a dream that leads

     Down a rough and rocky road

     You need a shoulder you can lean on a hand that you can hold

     And I'm leaning on a rock that never rolls

 

 

Well I'm still out here singing

But I've come a long, long way

From the young girl who was dreaming

She'd be standing on this stage

I thank God for the talent and the music in my soul

And I thank God for the rock, the rock that never rolls

 

     I'm leaning on a rock that never rolls

     When you're following a dream that leads

     Down a rough and rocky road

     You need a shoulder you can lean on a hand that you can hold

     And I'm leaning on a rock that never rolls

 

     You need a shoulder you can lean on a hand that you can hold

     Yes I'm leaning on a rock that never rolls
