The Storyteller Man

By Jordan St. Cyr

I was raised on radio
Facing backwards in dad's Dodge Monaco
Windows dirty, seats were cold
AM station, rock and roll
Singing words I didn't understand

Isn't that the way it goes?
You feel it in your heart before your head ever knows it

Billy Joel, Elton John, Bruce and Dylan
The list goes on
I always loved a storytelling man

And then I heard about the lonely prodigal
How a little faith can make a miracle
He told me who He was
Then He somehow told me who I am
That's why I trust my story to the hands
Of the storytelling man

He got underneath my skin
I heard the characters and found myself in them
Rich fools and Samaritans
That lost sheep, he got found again
There ain't no better storyteller man
There ain't no better storyteller man

And then I heard about the lonely prodigal
How a little faith can make a miracle
He told me who He was
Then He somehow told me who I am
That's why I trust my story to the hands
Of the storytelling man
The storytelling man

And if it's feeling like you've heard this all before
He's not just telling mine, my friend
He's also telling yours
And even now, sometimes
I still feel like that kid who wasn't sure

And then I heard about the lonely prodigal
How a little faith can make a miracle
He told me who He was
Then He somehow told me who I am
That's why I trust my story to the hands
Of the storytelling man
The storytelling man
