Well before our country was born
The settlers had devised a plan
One that would lead them to freedom
One that would free every man
They all prayed hard every day
To our Lord in Heaven above
Asking for help and for guidance
Knowing He was the God of love
The Almighty heard their prayers
Sent them a sign so they would know
That He was watching over them
While showing them which way to go
God knew just what He was doing
When He placed the Old Man up high
He made him in His own image
Like Him, an image in the sky
Once placed atop Cannon Mountain
His job was to watch over man
Before long he'd found the right place
To sit down and devise his plan
He knew just what his mission was
It had to be done day and night
To constantly watch over mankind
The spot he chose had to be right
With no idea where his trail would lead
Or just how long he would have to stay
The spot he would choose had to be right
To weather the storms both night and day
His presence was felt far below
The power of God raining down
His face etched as if in deep thought
Folks swore they saw sweat on his brow
Word soon traveled both far and wide
Of this rock man who lived alone
On top of a granite mountain
And why he chose to call it home
The Old Man was a work of love
Just ask those who've come by his place
He brought peace and hope to many
With a simple look at his face
Neil Armstrong played the Dissolution of America Card After His Return From Space-- the Military Dishonor Card. He had a very messy DIVORCE after a military Platoon Experience for his wife and family.
