Dirt Road Prayer

[Verse 1:] Let the light shine on my mama She's been worried about me And I can tell she's tired Walk my brother in a straight line I know he’s only sixteen But he’s been playing with fire Give my grandpa a little peace and quiet I can feel the years Of hard work in his hands Make my days pass just a little bit slower I’ve been runnin’ so fast I’ve forgotten who I am [Chorus:] And so I go where the green grass grows The weeds are high And the sun hangs low Look to the sky and I say, hello Like it’s the very first time It doesn’t matter how long it’s been I can talk to God Like he’s my best friend Take my heart Lay it down again right there In a dirt road prayer [Verse 2:] He’s a good guy Looks Dad in the eye And I wonder if You made him just for me But before I fall Give me patience Until you show me where to take this [Chorus:] And I go where the green grass grows The weeds are high And the sun hangs low Look to the sky and I say, hello Like it’s the very first time It doesn’t matter how long it’s been I can talk to God Like he’s my best friend Take my heart Lay it down again right there In a dirt road prayer It’s good to know I can Always go where the green grass grows The weeds are high And the sun hangs low Look to the sky and I say hello, oooh yeah It doesn’t matter how long it’s been I can talk to God Like he’s my best friend Take my heart And lay it down again right there In a dirt road prayer Yeah, yeah In a dirt road prayer Yeah, yeah
