Kate Wolf Statues Made Of Clay
WELL I SAW A MAN TODAY AND HE LOOKED LIKE YOU
AND I FOUND MYSELF STARING LIKE A FOOL
'TIL HE TURNED AND I HAD TO LOOK AWAY
'CAUSE HE WAS JUST A STATUE MADE OF CLAY.
STATUES MADE OF CLAY SO PRETTY AND SO CHEAPLY MADE
BUT THEY DON'T WEATHER WELL,
LIKE THE STRONG GRANITE STONE
THEY CRUMBLE AND THEY LEAVE YOU ALL ALONE
NOW I'VE BEEN ON THE ROAD,
A COUNTRY SINGER WITH A BAND
PLAYING ALL THE HONKY-TONKS
AND THE ONE-NIGHT STANDS
BUT I THINK ABOUT YOU WHEN YOU'RE FAR AWAY
AND THIS ROAD SEEMS LIKE A STATUE MADE OF CLAY
STATUES MADE OF CLAY SO PRETTY AND SO CHEAPLY MADE
BUT THEY DON'T WEATHER WELL,
LIKE THE STRONG GRANITE STONE
THEY CRUMBLE AND THEY LEAVE YOU ALL ALONE
NOW YOU AND I, WE'VE BEEN THROUGH
THE HARDEST TIMES
THERE'VE BEEN LONELY NIGHTS AND DAYS
WITHOUT A DIME
BUT MY LOVE FOR YOU GROWS STRONGER DAY BY DAY
'CAUSE YOU'RE NOT JUST A STATUE MADE OF CLAY
STATUES MADE OF CLAY SO PRETTY AND SO CHEAPLY MADE
BUT THEY DON'T WEATHER WELL,
LIKE THE STRONG GRANITE STONE
THEY CRUMBLE AND THEY LEAVE YOU ALL ALONE
