We were on that old front porch
Wind whistling through the screen door
I was sittin’ next to my old man
Doc just gave us the news
He might not make it through the cancer
Down goes Superman
But he surprised me
With what he had to say
He said, “Don’t worry
Son, I’m good either way
God let me meet your mom
Never thought I’d be so lucky
And then on top of that
He gave me kids that love me
Yeah, even on your darkest days
You never know what He’s got prepared for giving
So, until He calls you home again
Just keep living”
With some grace, he won that fight
We were right there by his side
When he rang that bell
I saw him cry for the first time in my life
“Don’t miss the little things
‘Cause you miss a lot that way”
His words are gonna guide me
For the rest of my days
“God let me meet your mom
Never thought I’d be so lucky
And then on top of that
He gave me kids that love me
Yeah, even on your darkest days
You never know what He’s got prepared for giving
So until He calls you home again
Just keep living”
Just keep living
Just keep living
“God let me meet your mom
Never thought I’d be so lucky
And then on top of that
He gave me kids that love me
Even on your darkest days
You never know what He’s got prepared for giving
So until He calls you home again
Just keep living
Just keep living”

Boots On The Ground
There’s somethin’ about when the sun goes down And we spot some neon lights We all come from miles around ‘Cause we wanna turn up the night You can feel …
Brake Lights
I wish you would’ve lost your keys Never put that thing in drive I wish I hadn’t said those things And put the hurt there in your eyes There’s nothing …
Dirt And Daisies
I don’t deserve this, the kind of magic A guy like me could only dream about But from the first day, you were the one thing I knew that I just couldn’t live …
Good As Yours
I haven’t said it yet But from the day that we first met Good Lord, I knew you were an angel This racing in my chest When your lips meet my lips We got something …
I Didn't Come Here To Leave
Sittin’ at home, starin’ at the wall Didn’t cut it So I pointed my truck towards my second home ‘Cause I love it Good time’s what I’m …
