Wood Newton - Wiley Moore Lyrics

When I remember back to my hometown
Seems like I knew everyone around
But when the memories start to fade
There’s one I’ll keep to the day
They lay my old body in the ground
I’ll always remember Wiley Moore
Working for the store next door
To the one that was my dad’s
A better friend I’ve never had
And I’ll always remember Wiley Moore
He knew me before I knew my name
Everytime he’d see me he’d act the same
He’d say how you doing Wood
Oh he made me made me feel so good
And I mean it when I sing this refrain
I’ll always remember Wiley Moore
Working for the store next door
To the one that was my dad’s
A better friend I’ve never had
And I’ll always remember Wiley Moore
When I finally grew from a pup
He’d take me for a ride in his pickup truck
He’d watch me in the Fall when I learned to play football
But he stayed outside the fence to save a buck
Before you knew it I was grown
Packed all my bags and left my home
Aw but when it crossed my mind what I’d left behind
I hoped he would like it when it was known
I’ll always remember Wiley Moore
Working for the store next door
To the one that was my dad’s
A better friend I’ve never had
And I’ll always remember
Always remember I’ll always remember Wiley Moore

When I remember back to my hometown
Seems like I knew everyone around
But when the memories start to fade
There’s one I’ll keep to the day
They lay my old body in the ground
I’ll always remember Wiley Moore
Working for the store next door
To the one that was my dad’s
A better friend I’ve never had
And I’ll always remember Wiley Moore
He knew me before I knew my name
Everytime he’d see me he’d act the same
He’d say how you doing Wood
Oh he made me made me feel so good
And I mean it when I sing this refrain
I’ll always remember Wiley Moore
Working for the store next door
To the one that was my dad’s
A better friend I’ve never had
And I’ll always remember Wiley Moore
When I finally grew from a pup
He’d take me for a ride in his pickup truck
He’d watch me in the Fall when I learned to play football
But he stayed outside the fence to save a buck
Before you knew it I was grown
Packed all my bags and left my home
Aw but when it crossed my mind what I’d left behind
I hoped he would like it when it was known
I’ll always remember Wiley Moore
Working for the store next door
To the one that was my dad’s
A better friend I’ve never had
And I’ll always remember
Always remember I’ll always remember Wiley Moore
