I've Endured

Lyrics:

• Born in the mountains, many years ago
• Climbed these hills and valleys through the rain and snow
• I've seen the lightning flashin', heard the thunder roll
• I've endured, I've endured, how long must one endure
• Barefoot in the summer, on into the fall
• Too many mouths to feed, they couldn't clothe us all
• Sent to church on Sunday to learn the golden rule
• I've endured, I've endured, how long must one endure
• I've worked for the rich, I've lived with the poor
• I've seen many heartaches and I'll see many more
• I've lived loved and sorrowed, been through success's door
• I've endured, I've endured, how long must one endure
