Dixie Chicks Standin` By The Bedside Lyrics

Standin` By The Bedside Lyrics

I was standin' by the bedside of a sister

Who was just about to cross that swellin' tide

And I asked her if she would do me a favor

And kindly take this message to the other side



Well, if you see my Savior tell him that you saw me

And when you saw me I was on my way

You may meet some boyfriends who may ask about me

You tell 'em I am a comin' home someday



I was standin' by the bedside of a sister

Who was just about to cross that swellin' tide

And I asked her if she would do me a favor

And kindly take this message to the other side



Well, you may have to make this journey on without me

Sooner or later, sooner or later it's a debt that must be paid

When you reach that goal that's when you'll think about me

But don't forget to tell my Savior what I said



I was standin' by the bedside of a sister

Who was just about to cross that swellin' tide

And I asked her if she would do me a favor

And kindly take this message to the other side

And kindly take this message to the other side
