Every now and then a feller comes along
With pure intent, embedded in song
Lets the light on in, and the light gets strong
Every now and then, a feller comes along
He could be preaching the gospel or just pitching a tent
Doing the impossible, and ending up spent
Every now and then, every now and then
A feller comes along
The mountain is high, the road is long
The river's are wide when you can't go on
But you got to get it up, yeah you got to be strong
Every now and then, at night a light comes on
(solos)
Every now and then a feller comes along
With pure intent, embedded in song
Lets the light on in, and the light gets strong
Every now and then, at night the light comes on
(Preaching the gospel, pitching a tent)
Maybe leaning toward new love, but ending up bent
(Ending up bent)
Every now and then
(Now and then), now and then
(Now and then)
Now and then
(Now and then)
A feller comes along
