Lyrics

The Old Troubadour Words and Music by Rick Fisher (Richard Dean Fisher) The lyrics:

First I hear the melody,
it's got a hold on me, it won't let go
Then I hear the perfect harmony,
it's like a symphony around my soul
And then the words pour out of my heart
like a river rolling over a stone

But who will rescue me?
I'm too old to be your troubadour
But who will rescue me?
I'm in the wilderness all alone
But the Lord, He won't let go
And the melodies still flow...

I took my time to get the story right
All the verses rhyme or they get along
Call my friend up on the telephone
"Hey Gary, I need a lead guitar to bring this home."
And the sound he provides takes my song to new heights
where only Angels dare to fly

But who will rescue me?
I'm too old to be your troubadour
Who will rescue me?
I'm in the wilderness all alone
But the Lord, He won't let go
And the melodies still flow.
Take it away, Gary

Who will rescue me?
I'm too old to be your troubadour
Who will rescue me
from the wilderness I adore
But the Lord, He won't let go
My Lord please don't let go
Lord please don't let go
Lord, He won't let go
My Lord He won't let go
