Come What May

True story


With a high school education
I did the best that I could do
But one day the boss man dropped the bomb
He was laying off the crew
And our third mortage payment
On our first house was due
But she took my hand and said
Don't worry babe

CHORUS

Come what may - we'll see it through
Together there ain't nothing we can't do
Just keep the course and keep the faith
And everything will be ok
Come what may

2ND VERSE
When she graduated college
She said "we're Big Apple bound"
God she was so excited
About the job she'd got in town
And I found work in the city
And the Lord was smiling down
And the light that shined
Around her seemed to say

CHORUS

Come what may- we'll see it thru
Together there ain't nothing we can't do
Just keep the course and keep the faith
And everything will be ok
Come what may

BRIDGE

But that morning in Manhattan
I watched in disbelief
As I saw the towers tumble down
I crumbled to my knees
Over come with sorrow
Knowing she had not survived
It was there I swear I heard
Her sweet voice say


Come what may- we'll see it thru
United there ain't nothing we can't do
Just keep the course and keep the faith
And I know that's what she'd say
Come what may
