Lyrics
One Loyal Man
Verse: After high school graduation, he got his union card.
He earned a reputation for always workin' hard.
Building those houses with sweat and mortar and bricks.
Never late in 40 years, and never called in sick.
CHORUS: He's one loyal man, devoted to his job.
Each and every day, giving all he's got.
One honest worker, with two strong hands.
They could count on him, he's one loyal man.
Verse: On a blind date, he met his sweetheart, it was love at first sight.
He promised her forever on that very first night.
A fairy tale of love between a princess and her prince.
He built her their dream house, they've lived there ever since.
CHORUS: He's one loyal man, faithful to his wife,
With one loving heart, for the rest of his life.
Right from the moment their story began,
She could count on him, he's one loyal man.
Bridge: For a year after he retired, life went just as they'd planned.
So the news her doctor gave him seemed hard to understand.
She slowly lost her memory and soon forgot his name.
To her, he became a stranger, but he loved her just the same.
CHORUS: He's one loyal man, fulfilling her needs,
With one loving heart, never missing a beat.
Right from the moment their story began,
She could count on him, he's one loyal man.
Tag: Yes, he'll keep his promise, he's one loyal man.
