I've been so touched by this song that I made it a part of my profile. My wife has a ukulele and my new mission in life is to be able to play this song.
Here's a good article about the author of the song and his experience including the lyrics (for you, Truegrits), though they seem different from the above video. Maybe those guys added a few. I like the version in the first post better. The tempo and harmonizing is better but the one in the following link is nice, too.
